    Assignment Ans 1.1 a) The standard error, or standard deviation of the sample mean, = population standard deviation/square root of sample size = $10.75/14 b) z = (60-68.30)/10.75 = -0.77 from the z tables we see that the probability that z is less than -0.77 is .2206, so the probability that x is GREATER than 60 is 1-.2206 = .7794. c) Now we are dealing with variation of the sample mean, so the standard error is 10.75/sqrt(100) = 1.075 Z = (66-68.30)/1.075 = -2.14, and the associated probability

    Introduction for learn formula for standard deviation: In Statistics, the standard deviation is named as the determination of indecision of a chance variable, expressed as the average deviation of a group of data from its arithmetic mean and planned as the positive square root of the inconsistency. In this article we are discussing about learn formula for standard deviation problems. The following formula for solving standard deviation. S = sqrt ((sum(X –M)^2)/N-1))

    factors were investigated. First, drivers at Path 1 have higher speed and low standard deviation of speed, standard deviation of lane deviation, and acceleration noise than other paths. Vehicles from the on-ramp before toll plaza (i.e., Paths 4 and 5), as shown in Figure 3 (a), have lower speed and higher dangerous behavior (i.e., standard deviation of speed, acceleration noise, and standard deviation of lane deviation) compared to Path 1 at all zones. It can be explained that vehicles from the on-ramp

    Standard Deviation The Standard deviation is calculated from the raw data and the means of each golf club, illustrating the variance of each data point for each handicap. The greater the standard deviation, the further away the data is from the mean, showing the data to be unreliable. On the other hand, the smaller the standard deviation the more reliable the data from each trial is. However, as the difference in standard deviation is due to the different golf club face angles, the standard deviation
