Examples:
Compute the standard deviation and the variance of the set of test scores: {39,
10, 24, 16, 19, 26, 29, 30, 5}.
Solution:
∑𝑥 39+10+24 +16+19+26+29+30+5 198

= √100 = 10
The standard deviation of 10 means most of the scores are within 10 units
from the mean.

C. Analysis: (10 minutes)
“How can I make use of the representations and descriptions of given set of data in
real-life situations?”
F. Generalization:
This lesson was about measures of variability of grouped data. The lesson
provided you opportunities to describe on how to solve standard deviation and
variance of the given grouped data. Moreover, you were given the chance to apply
the given important notes on how to solve the standard deviation and variance of
the given grouped data and to demonstrate your understanding of the lesson by
doing a practical task.
