a. Range= 3216, Variance = 993826, Standard Deviation = 996.908 b. Coefficient of Variation = 231.947%

Work Step by Step

a. Range = Highest Value - Lowest Value = 3261-45 = 3216 Variance = $%σ^2=[∑(x-μ)^2 ]/n-1 $ =${∑(x^2) –[∑(x)^2/N]}/n-1%$ =$(157589-1847280)/9$ =$993826$ Standard Deviation = $\sqrt 993826 = 996.908$ b. Coefficient of Variation=$996.908\div429.8\times100% =231.95%$
