Find the standard deviation for the following data :5,9,8,12,6,10,6,8

Explanation

To find the standard deviation for the given data set \(5, 9, 8, 12, 6, 10, 6, 8\), we will follow these steps:

### Step 1: Calculate the Mean
The mean (\(\bar{x}\)) is calculated using the formula:
\[ \bar{x} = \frac{\sum x}{n} \]
where \(n\) is the number of observations.
