Recently, a random sample of 13-18 year olds was asked, "How much do you currently have in savings?" The data in the table represent the responses to the survey. Approximate the mean and standard deviation amount of savings.

The mean of a distribution is its average, while the standard deviation is the summary of how far each data in the dataset, is to the mean. The mean and the standard deviation are 234.88 and 234.31 respectively.

First, we calculate the class midpoint (x).

This is the average of the class interval.

From the attached table, we have:

...

So, the new table becomes:

The mean of the distribution is calculated as follows:

The standard deviation is calculated as follows:

This becomes

Hence, the mean and the standard deviation are 234.88 and 234.31 respectively.

μ = 235.38

σ = 234.54

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the table is as follows:

This is an example of grouped data, where a range of values is given rather than a single data point.  First, find the total frequency.

n = 339 + 86 + 55 + 18 + 11 + 8 + 3

n = 520

The mean is the expected value using the midpoints of each range.

μ = (339×100 + 86×300 + 55×500 + 18×700 + 11×900 + 8×1100 + 3×1300) / 520

μ = 122400 / 520

μ = 235.38

The variance is:

σ² = [(339×100² + 86×300² + 55×500² + 18×700² + 11×900² + 8×1100² + 3×1300²) − (520×235.38²)] / (520 − 1)

σ² = 55009.7

The standard deviation is:

σ = 234.54

i would be happy to . most people on would also love to i'm sure. if you just want someone who has done algebra before and want a little more personal relationship than just begging strangers for , i can certainly be of service. i do have college myself so i might not be 24/7.
