1 Analyzing Data Standard Deviation

2 Standard Deviation Range: The difference between the greatest and least values Standard Deviation: Measure the variation in the data ***Small standard deviation (compared to data) indicates the data are clustered tightly around the mean A large standard deviation may signify that the results of an experiment are inconclusive.

3 Measures of Central Tendency
Find the mean, median, and mode of the following data: 80, 82, 85, 90, 74, 75, 79, 79, 76

4 Using the Standard Deviation
Using the last example, within how many standard deviations of the mean do all the data values fall? 4

5 Finding Standard Deviation
Find the mean of the data set: Find the difference between each value and the mean: Square each difference: Find the average of these squares: Take the square root to find standard deviation:

6 Computing the Standard Deviation
Given data: 2, 3,4 6, 7, 9 10, 12, 13,14 Find the mean. 𝑥 = L2: “L1- 𝑥 “ L3: L3^2 2nd>LIST>MATH>5:Sum(L3) Divide by n Take sqrt.

7 Finding Standard Deviation with the Calculator
Find the mean and standard deviation of the data for daily energy demand in a small town during August: 7

8 Finding Standard Deviation with the Calculator
Find the mean and standard deviation of the data for daily energy demand in a small town during August: Step 1: Enter data into L1 Step 2: Use the CALC menu of STAT to access the 1-Var Stats option 8
