Compute the standard deviation. The formula for computing the standard deviation is given by 8 = n (; - )2 i=1 n-1 The process for computing the standard deviation can also be expressed in words using the following steps. 1. Compute the sample mean. 2. Subtract the sample mean from each sample value. 3. Square the differences. 4. Compute the sum of the squares. 5. Divide the sum by the sample size minus one. 6. Compute the square root of the quotient. Compute the standard deviation for the following tiny data set. Round all values to 4 decimal places as needed. Data 10 8 13 2 8 1. Compute the mean. x = 2.
