What is the population standard deviation for the numbers: 75, 83, 96, 100, 121 and 125?

OpenStudy (kevin):

standard deviation = sqrt(variance)

OpenStudy (mrnood):

OK - there are a number of steps you need to take to work out this value First of all can you work out the MEAN of all the values Post it here and I will help with th enext step...

OpenStudy (kevin):

variance = \[\frac{ \sum_{i=1}^{n} f(x - \mu )^2}{ n }\]

OpenStudy (mrnood):

NOTE - you are asked for the POPULATION SD (More often you will be faced with SAMPLE SD) The first thing you need is the mean - but before that @iyanlak1 please respond This is a process you should DO yourself - rather than let @Kevin do it for you. Once oyu have done it you will understand it - then you can use a calculator or website for future calculations.
