Standard deviation using the TI-30x IIs

With this list, we can use the TI-30x IIs to get the average and both standard deviations, sx, the standard deviation for a sample and sigmax, the standard deviation for a population.

The buttons to press will be written in red.



Here is a data set we will input.


60, 60, 60, 61, 62, 62, 63, 63,64, 65, 65, 66, 66, 66, 66, 66, 66, 66, 66,

68, 68, 69, 69, 69, 70, 70, 71, 71, 71, 72, 72, 74, 76, 77, 78
