Variance and Standard Deviation

Comparison of Outdoor PaintA testing lab wishes to test two
experimental brands of outdoor paint to see how long each will last before fades. The testing lab makes 6 gallons of each paint to test. Since different chemical agents are added to each group and only six cans involved, these two groups constitute two small populations. The results in months are shown.

Results? Although the means are the same, we cannot
conclude that both brands of paint last equally well.
Find the range:

Definitions and formulas for variability of a data set: The variance is the average of the squares of the
distance of each value is from the mean.
The standard deviation is the square root of the variance.

Steps for finding Variance and Standard Deviation1. Find the mean of the data2. Subtract the mean from each data value3. Square each result4. Find the sum of the squares5. Divide the sum by N to get the variance6. Take the square root of the variance to get
the standard deviation(It might be helpful to organize the data in a table)

Conclusions Since the standard deviation of brand A is
greater than the standard deviation of brand B, the data are more variable for brand A.
In summary, when the means are equal, the larger the variance or standard deviation is, the more variable the data are.

Steps for finding the sample variance and standard deviation:1. Find the sum of the values (∑X)
2. Square each value and find the sum (∑X2)
3. Substitute in the formulas and solve
