Answer:

Range = 29

Variance=   (X₁- U) ² / N= 973/10 = 97.3

Standard Deviation= √variance= √97.3=  9.864

Step-by-step explanation:

Range = Difference between the highest and lowest value = 97-68= 29

Variance

                  X₁                X₁-U               (X₁- U) ²              

                 80               0                     zero

                 68                -12                   144

                 71                 -9                     81

                 72                -8                     64

                 95                 15                    225                  

                89                  9                     81

                97                   17                   289

                72                    -8                 64

                75                     -5                 25

                81                     1                   1

∑              800                ZERO            973  

u=  ∑X₁ /10=800/10=80

Variance=   (X₁- U) ² / N= 973/10 = 97.3

Standard Deviation= √variance= √97.3=  9.864

(b) The important feature of the data is not revealed through the different measures of​ variation is that the variability of two or more than two sets of data cannot be compared unless a relative measure of dispersion is used .
