Yuri computes the mean and standard deviation for the sample data set 12, 14, 9, and 21. He finds the mean is 14. His steps for finding the standard deviation are below. s = StartRoot StartFraction (12 minus 14) squared + (14 minus 14) squared + (9 minus 14) squared + (21 minus 14) squared Over 4 EndFraction EndRoot. = StartRoot StartFraction negative 2 squared + 0 squared + negative 5 squared + 7 squared Over 4 EndFraction EndRoot. = StartRoot StartFraction 4 + 0 + 25 + 49 Over 4 EndFraction EndRoot. = StartRoot StartFraction 78 Over 4 EndFraction EndRoot. = StartRoot 19.5 EndRoot. What is the first error he made in computing the standard deviation? Yuri failed to find the difference between each data point and the mean. Yuri divided by n instead of n -1. Yuri did not subtract 9 - 14 correctly. Yuri failed to square -2 correctly.

The table shows population statistics for the ages of best actor and best supporting actor winners at an awards ceremony. the distributions of the ages are approximately bell-shaped. compare the z-scores for the actors in the following situation. best actor best supporting actor muequals42.0 muequals49.0 sigmaequals7.3 sigmaequals15 in a particular year, the best actor was 59 years old and the best supporting actor was 45 years old. determine the z-scores for each. best actor: z equals best supporting actor: z equals (round to two decimal places as needed.) interpret the z-scores. the best actor was (more than 2 standard deviations above more than 1 standard deviation above less than 1 standard deviation above less than 2 standard deviations below) the mean, which (is not, is) unusual. the best supporting actor was (less than 1 standard deviation below more than 1 standard deviation above more than 2 standard deviations below more than 1 standard deviation below) the mean, which (is is not) unusual.
