The data below represents the score on an Algebra test. Determine the population mean score and standard deviation.
Score Number of students
50-59 2 ::: Mark is 54.5::: sum = 2*54.5 = 109
----------------------
60-69 3 ::: Mark is 64.5::: sum = 3*64.5 = 193.5
----------------------
70-79 7 ::: Mark is 74.5::: sum = 7*74.5 = 521.5
----------------------
80-89 10::: Mark is 84.5 ::: sum = 10*84.5 = 845
----------------------
90-99 8 ::: Mark is 94.5 ::: sum = 8*94.5 = 756
-----
Mean = (sum of the sums)/(sum of the frequencies) 80.83
----
Using the mean you can figure out the standard deviation.
