Question

Based on the following calculator output, determine the population standard deviation of the dataset, rounding to the nearest 1ooth if necessary.  {:[" 1-Var-Stats "],[ bar(x)=238.428571429],[Sigma x=1669],[Sigmax^(2)=399997],[Sx=18.5279711325],[sigma x=17.1535680824],[n=7],[minX=216],[Q_(1)=224],[Med^(2)=234],[Q_(3)=254],[maxX=271]:} Answer:

Identify Symbol: Identify the symbol for population standard deviation in the calculator output. The symbol for population standard deviation in most statistical calculators is ＂sigma x＂ or ＂σx＂. In the given output, we see ＂[sigma x=17.1535680824]＂. This indicates the population standard deviation.Check Value: Check the value given for population standard deviation. The value provided for the population standard deviation is 17.1535680824. Since we are asked to round to the nearest hundredth, we will round this number accordingly.Round to Nearest Hundredth: Round the population standard deviation to the nearest hundredth. Rounding 17.1535680824 to the nearest hundredth gives us 17.15.
