We can confirm this by calculating:
2 + 2 + 2 + 3 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 7 + 8 = 36
36 ÷ 9 = 4
The Mean is the Balance Point

• Place the 9 sticky notes as a group so that exactly
3 are ‘16’, and one is ’12’. Place the remaining
five numbers so that the balance point is 16.
Then find the sum of deviations from the center.
• Place the 9 sticky notes as a group so that exactly 1
is ‘11’, two are ‘17’ and two are ’16’. None of the
remaining ones have ’16’ Place the remaining four
numbers so that the balance point is 16. Then find
the sum of the deviations from the center.

Variability:
How far the data is spread out
Standard deviation:
Sx for a sample size (we’ll use)
for the population.
Way to measure the variability.
Closer to zero is better!
x
Zscore:
How many standard deviations something
is from the mean. The higher the absolute
value of it, the more unique it is.
Score= Z*(Std. dev) + mean
Which of the following will have the
highest variability?
A. [Heights of people in this room]
B. [Ages of people in this room]
C. [The number of countries that people have
been to in this room?]
Variability: How close the numbers are together.
Which would have a lower standard
deviation? (Be prepared to explain):
A. [The heights of students in this class]
B. [The heights of students in this school]
Sum of Distances from Center:
-2,-2,-2,-1,-1,0,1,3,4 = 0
Sum of Squares of distances:
4,4,4,1,1,0,1,9,16=40
from center:
Average (with one less member) of the
squares of the distance from the center: VARIANCE 40/8=5
Square root of the VARIANCE:
2.23
so the STANDARD DEVIATION (Sx) is 2.23
Now find the STANDARD DEVIATION of your Poster

Calculator Method
• To Find the Standard Deviation and Mean
•
•
•
•
•
•
1) Put the numbers into STAT EDIT
2) Do STAT CALC 1-VAR STATS.
The x is the “mean”
The Sx is the standard deviation we will use
The n is the amount of data (good way of checking)
The ‘med’ is the median (scroll down)
To find the % of people within a certain range:
• NORMALCDF (lower value, upper value, mean,
standard deviation)
To find the percentile: The lower value is 0
• NORMALCDF (0, upper value, mean, standard
deviation)

Adult female dalmatians weigh an average of

the boxer weighs 52 pounds. Which dog is
more underweight? Explain using z scores

One way to measure light bulbs is to measure
the life span. A soft white bulb has a mean life
of 700 hours and a standard deviation of 35
hours. A standard light bulb has a mean life of
675 hours and a standard deviation of 50 hours.
In an experiment, both light bulbs lasted 750
hours. Which light bulb’s span was better?

C) Find your percentile:
Debate:
• Side 1) You are trying to convince your teacher
to always curve test grades to a standard
deviation
• Side 2) You are trying to convince your teacher
to never curve test grades to a standard
deviation
Summarize the Mathematics
A) Describe in words how to find the standard deviation.
B) What happens to the standard deviation as you increase the sample
size?
C) Which measures of variation (range, interquartile range, standard
deviation) are resistant to outliers. Explain
D) If a deviation of a data point from the mean is positive, what do you
know about its value? What if the deviation is zero?
E) What do you know about the sum of all the deviations of the mean?
F) Suppose you have two sets of data with an equal sample size and
mean. The first data set has a larger deviation than the second one.
What can you conclude?
Think back to the two overweight people shown
on the first slide. How could we now determine
which one is more overweight?
