The weights (to the nearest pound) of some boxes to be shipped are found to be: . weight 65 68 69 70 71 72 90 95 frequency 1 2 5 8 7 3 2 2 their mean weight is 72.97 pounds. what is the standard deviation of these weights? the standard deviation, to the nearest tenth, is a0.

So the mean is 72.97

We need to subtract the mean from each value and square it.
(65-72.97)^2= 63.5209
(68-72.97)^2=24.7009
(69-72.97)^2=15.7609
(70-72.97)^2=8.8209
(71-72.97)^2= 3.8809
(72-72.97)^2=0.9409
(90-72.97)^2=290.0209
(95-72.97)^2=485.3209

Now we add up the new values ( also consider their frequency) and find their mean.
Add the values
63.5209+(2 •24.7009=49.4018)+(5•15.7609=78.8045)+(8•8.8209=70.5672)+(7•3.8809=27.1663)+(3•0.9409=2.8227)+(2•290.0209=580.0418)+(2•485.3209=970.6418)= 1,842.967
Divide by total numburs to find the mean
1,842.967/ 30=61.43223333

The standar deviation is the square root of the mean so is
Square root of 61.43223333=7.837871735
Round to the nearest tenth
Standard Deviation is 7.8
