  • This video covers how to find the standard deviation by hand using the formula. Remember there are actually two formulas depending if your data comes from a sample or a population. Even though all of these calculations can be done by hand, a calculator is recommended so that you don't make mistakes.

    Where did the 10 . 9 suddenly come from when putting your numbers in the equation. The 10 is for how many numbers there are in your x value correct? Because n = 10. But what about the 9?

    • @MySecretMathTutor
      @MySecretMathTutor  4 роки тому +11

      This comes directly from the formal since there is an "n" and an "n-1"
      So you have n = 10 and n-1 = 9.
      Let me know if that helps out. :^D

    At 3:15 when he says 10x9, that doesnt work. You need to do 10(85511)-793881 divided by 10 then divided by 9 to get 680.32, then square it. I don't know why he said 10x9 but that was wrong unless I'm just stupid. I had to figure this out the hard way though.

    Is it possible to preemptively cancel out the numerator and denominator N values, so that the denominators are just (n-1) and N before computing? I've never seen the equation originally written like that.

    • @MySecretMathTutor
      @MySecretMathTutor  4 роки тому

      Careful, note how that n is only on one of the terms in the numerator. Because of this we can't can't it out.
