Students at a major university in Southern California are complaining about a serious housing crunch. Many of the university's students, they complain, have to commute too far to school because there is not enough housing near campus. The university officials' response is to perform a study. The study, reported in the school newspaper, contains the following histogram summarizing the commute distances for a sample of 48 students at the university: Frequency 20- 20 15- 12 10- 5- 4. 0- 4 12 16 20 Commute distance (in miles) Based on this histogram, estimate the standard deviation of the sample of 48 distances. Carry your intermediate computations to at least four decimal places, and round your answer to at least one decimal place.
