Anyone?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so you need help or you just need your answer checked? if you need help with the steps, you would add up the values and then divide by 10 (since there are ten values) to get the mean

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The answer that i have selected on there is wrong.

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

as for the standard deviation, you should use a calculator like this one http://www.miniwebtool.com/sample-standard-deviation-calculator/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok i got, 1.5?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

nvm they want the population standard deviation, so use this http://www.miniwebtool.com/population-standard-deviation-calculator/

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so copy/paste what you typed in to save time

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1.4?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

1.426884719 yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is what i got.

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

which rounds to 1.43

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So my answer would either be, A or B.

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

now find the mean

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How do I do that.

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

add up the values and then divide by 10 (since there are ten values) to get the mean

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

11.8!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Now what?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

you have the mean of 11.8 (which is the correct mean) and the standard deviation of 1.43, so you have the answers you need to finish up

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you very much.
