I'll work out the mean. You can work out the standard deviation.
Note:: Use the mark of each interval to represent the interval value.
-----
mean = (1*1 + 3*4 + 4*7 + 1*10 + 1*13)/(1+3+4+1+1)
-----
= (1 + 12 + 28 + 10 + 13)/(10)
----
= 64/10
===
= 6.4
--------
Note:: The answer you should get for the sample standard deviation is 3.41
