Petreleum pollution in oceans stimulates the growth of certaic bacteria. An asersulem of this growth hys beeg counting the bacteria in each of 5 randomly chowen specimens of ocean mater (of a trived wive). The 5 colints of as follows. 41, 67, 44, 68, 40 Send data to coliculator Find the standard deviation of this sample of numbers. Round your answer to twe decimal places. (If necessary, consult a list of form/las.)

Step 1
The data points are 41, 67, 44, 68, and 40. Mean = (41 + 67 + 44 + 68 + 40) / 5 = 260 / 5 = 52. Show more…

Petroleum pollution in seas and oceans stimulates the growth of some types of bacteria. A count of the number of bacteria (per 100 milliliters) in 10 portions of seawater gave the readings given below. 48 69 52 68 60 43 60 70 74 53 (a) Calculate the range. = 31 (b)Calculate x. x = Calculate s. (Round your answer to four decimal places.) s = (c) The range is about how many standard deviations? (Round your answer to one decimal place.) The range is approximately 3 standard deviations.
