Calculate the standard deviation of your data


Discuss the folloiwng:

Q: The data below is how many minutes that I have read each day for 15 days.

Compare the data from the first 10 days to the last 5 days

20, 10, 17, 20, 60, 0, 30, 0, 0, 0, / 15, 15, 30, 25, 18
Is the larger sample changing anything?

Is your mean increasing or decreasing?

Do you think the current sample you have is enough to paint an accurate picture, or do you need a much larger sample?

Now using Excel, prepare a frequency distribution from the following data

20, 10, 17, 20, 60, 0, 30, 0, 0, 0

Calculate the Standard Deviation of your data.

Is this a normal distribution?

What are the implications?
