Below are the jersey numbers of 11 players randomly selected from a football team. Find the range, variance, and standard deviation for the given sample data. 33 29 97 56 26 78 83 74 65 47 58
What do the results tell us?
A. Jersey numbers are nominal data that are just replacements for names, so the resulting statistics are meaningless.
B. Jersey numbers on a football team vary much more than expected.
C. The sample standard deviation is too large in comparison to the range.
D. Jersey numbers on a football team do not vary as much as expected.

Option(A) is correct

Jersey numbers are nominal data that are just replacements for names, so the resulting statistics are meaningless.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given data set in the question are ;33, 29, 97, 56, 26, 78, 83, 74, 65, 47, 58

the range can be determined by finding the highest value and subtract it to the lowest value. In this case the values are:

Highest = 97

Lowest = 71

Range = highest value - Minimum value

Range = 97 - 26 = 71

mean of the data is the summation of all the numbers in the data set divided by the number of given samples.

Mean = (33 + 29 + 97 + 56+ 26 + 78 + 83 74+ 65 + 47 + 58)/11

= 647/11

Now to find the variance of the data set by using below formular

σ²=[ (xᵢ -mean)²]/n-1

[(33-58.7)² +(29-58.7)²+( 97-58.7)²+( 56-58.7)²+( 26 -58.7)²+(78-58.7)²+( 83 -58.7)²+(74-58.7)²+( 65-58.7)²+( 47 -58.7)²+(58 -58.7)²]/10

Now, we will calculate standard deviation by taking square root over variance

σ =√(variance)

σ =√(546)

Hence, the range is 71 ,variance is 546 and standard deviation is 23.4 therefore,

Option A is the answer that is Jersey numbers are nominal data that are just replacements for names, so the resulting statistics are meaningless.

0.6, 3/5, and 6% are the 3 same portion.

but, when they're all changed to a decimal they would equal to 0.6.

hope this , good luck!
