The data set {3, 7, 5, 4, 1} consists of the lengths, in minutes, of a sample of speeches at an awards banquet. Use a formula to find the standard deviation of the sample, and label it with the correct variable.

Standard deviation = 2.2360679774998

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the Standard deviation of a samples of speeches as an awards.

The formula for sample standard deviation is given as:

√[(x - μ)²/N - 1 ]

Step 1

We find the mean (μ)

The mean of the sample =>

= Sum of term/ Number of terms

= (3 + 7 + 5 + 4 + 1)/5

= 20/5

= 4

Step 2

Find the Standard deviation of the sample

√[(x - μ)²/N - 1 ]

N = number of samples or terms = 5

= √[(3 - 4) ² + (7 - 4)² + (5 - 4)² +(4 - 4)² +(1 - 4)²/ 4]

= √ (1 ² + 3² + -1² + 0² + -3²/4)

= √( 1 + 9 + 1 + 0 + 9/4)

= √20/5 - 1

= √5

= 2.2360679774998

The standard deviation of the sample = 2.2360679774998
