Answer:

1.15

Step-by-step explanation:

9, 7, 6.5, 7.5, 7, 8, 5, 6, 7.5, 8

Sum = 9 + 7 + 6.5 + 7.5 + 7 + 8 + 5 + 6 + 7.5 + 8 = 71.5

N = 10

Mean = 7.15

Variance = Σ (x - mean)² / n

=  [1.85 ² + (-0.15) ² + (-0.65) ² + 0.35 ² + (-0.15) ² + 0.85 ² + (-2.15) ² + (-1.15) ² + 0.35 ² + 0.85 ²]/10

= [3.4225   + 0.0225  + 0.4225  + 0.1225  + 0.0225  + 0.7225  + 4.6225  + 1.3225 + 0.1225  + 0.7225  ]/10

= 11.525/10

= 1.1525

the variance of the data set  1.15
