Calculating the standard deviation (σ) for a list of n data values: 1. Calculate the average value. 2. Subtract the average value from each individual data value and enter the results in a column to the right of the data values. 3. Square each of the results obtained in step 2, and enter these in a new column to the right. 4. Sum the squares obtained in step 3. 5. Divide the result from step 4 by (n - 1) (the total number of measurements minus 1). 6. Take the square root of the result from step 5. This is the standard deviation. Expressed as an equation, the standard deviation of n measurements of data value x is: σ = ( Σ (x - xavg)2 / (n - 1) )1/2 Using the 6 steps above (or the spreadsheet function), calculate the standard deviation for the six values on page 16 and enter your answer below. Enter your result with only one sig fig, and remember to use a zero before the decimal point for values less than 1, for example 0.05 or 0.01.

The average value for x is calculated as:

option 1 is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

y varies inversely with x and constant of variation is 4

the equation will be:

y = k/x

where k =4 so,

y = 4/x

if we put values of x of option 1 in the above equation and find values of y

y = 4/-2 => y =-2

y = 4/-1 => y = -4

y = 4/1 => y = 4

y = 4/2 => y =2

so, all the values of x and y are correct.

if we put values of x given in other options and find value of y we cannot find whole table satisfying the equation.

hence option 1 is correct.
