The ages (in years) of the 5 doctors at a local clinic are the following. 38, 50, 39, 53, 50 Assuming that these ages constitute an entire population, find the standard deviation of the population. Round your answer to two decimal places.

Step 1
First, we need to find the mean of the ages. Mean = (38 + 50 + 39 + 53 + 50) / 5 = 230 / 5 = 46 Show more…

The ages (in years) of the doctors at a local clinic are the following: 34, 41, 36, 45, 52, 50 Assuming that these ages constitute an entire population, find the standard deviation of the population. Round your answer to two decimal places (if necessary; consult a list of formulas).

The average age of doctors in a certain hospital is 45.0 years old with a standard deviation of 4.0 years. If 10 doctors are chosen at random for a committee, assume that the variable is normally distributed, find the probability that a) the mean age of those doctors is less than 43.80 years. b) the mean age of those doctors is between 42 to 47 years. c) the mean age of those doctors is more than 45.80 years.

The average age of doctors in a certain hospital is 47.0 years old. Suppose the distribution of ages is normal and has a standard deviation of 6.0 years. If 25 doctors are chosen at random for a committee, find the probability that the average age of those doctors is less than 47.5 years. Assume that the variable is normally distributed.
