Show that the two formulae for the standard deviation of ungrouped data: `sigma=sqrt(1/nsum(x_i- barX )^2)` `a n d\ sigma^(prime)=sqrt(1/nsumx_i^2- barX ^2)` are equivalent where `barX =1/nsumx_i`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
Answer:

`bar{X}=frac{1}{n} sum x_{i}`

\begin{equation} \begin{aligned} &\sigma=\sqrt{\frac{1}{n} \sum\left(x_{i}-\bar{X}\right)^{2}} \\ &=\sqrt{\frac{1}{n} \sum\left(x_{i}^{2}-2 x_{i} \bar{X}+\bar{X}\right)^{2}}=\sqrt{\frac{1}{n} \sum x_{i}^{2}-\frac{1}{n} \sum 2 x_{i} \bar{X}+\frac{1}{n} \sum \bar{X}^{2}} \\ &=\sqrt{\frac{1}{n} \sum x_{i}^{2}-\frac{1}{n} \times 2 \bar{X} \sum x_{i}+\frac{1}{n} \times \bar{X}^{2} \sum 1} \\ &=\sqrt{\frac{1}{n} \sum x_{i}^{2}-\frac{1}{n} \times 2 \bar{X} \times n \bar{X}+\frac{1}{n} \times \bar{X}^{2} \times n}\left(\bar{X}=\frac{1}{n} \sum x_{i}\right) \\ &=\sqrt{\frac{1}{n} \sum x_{i}^{2}-2 \bar{X}+\bar{X}^{2}}=\sqrt{\frac{1}{n} \sum x_{i}^{2}-\bar{X}^{2}}=\sigma^{1} \\ &\text { Hence, the formula } \\ ...
