Suppose a student completes an experiment with an average value of 2.9 mL and a calculated standard deviation of 0.71 mL. What is the minimum value within a 1 SD range of the average

The correct answer is 2.2 mL.

Explanation:

Given:

Average: 2.9 mL

SD: 0.71 mL

We can define a 1 SD range in which the value of volume (in mL) will be comprised:

Volume (mL) = Average ± SD = (2.9 ± 0.7) mL

Maximum value= Average + SD= 2.9 + 0.7 mL = 3.6 mL

Minimum value= Average - SD = 2.9 - 0.7 mL = 2.2 mL

Thus, the minimum value within a 1 SD range of the average is 2.2 mL
