Help + Check my answers!? Will medal and fan!

The Jonas school district gives awards to its schools based on overall student attendance. The data for attendance are shown in the table, where Low represents the fewest days attended and High represents the most days attended for a single student.

Answer 1

for A you want the school with the lowest standard deviation (σ)
For b you want the school with the highest mean

Answer 2

So they would both be High School P?

Answer 3

yes. A is wrong, B is right. Standard deviation is a measure of consistency. A should be P. B should be N, which is what you have

Answer 4

Thank you so much! I looked back in my lesson, and there was only one example like this. And they didn't talk about consistency, they talked about finding the average. I really appreciate it.

Answer 5

Oops, that was a typo :P Thanks, again!

Answer 6

no problem
