Transcribed Image Text:### Statistical Analysis of Football Teams' Season Wins
The dataset provided below represents the number of regular season wins for 10 football teams in a given season. The objective is to determine the range, mean, variance, and standard deviation of the population data set.
#### Data Set:
- Wins: 2, 6, 15, 4, 12, 8, 15, 8, 2, 7
#### Analysis:
1. **Range:**
The range is calculated by subtracting the smallest value in the dataset from the largest value.
- Formula: Range = Maximum Value - Minimum Value
- In this dataset: Maximum Value = 15, Minimum Value = 2
- Calculation: Range = 15 - 2
- **Result**: The range is **13**.
2. **Mean:**
The mean (average) is calculated by adding all the values together and dividing by the number of values.
- Formula: Mean = (Sum of All Values) / (Number of Values)
- Calculation: Mean = (2 + 6 + 15 + 4 + 12 + 8 + 15 + 8 + 2 + 7) / 10
- **Step-by-Step Summation**:
- 2 + 6 = 8
- 8 + 15 = 23
- 23 + 4 = 27
- 27 + 12 = 39
- 39 + 8 = 47
- 47 + 15 = 62
- 62 + 8 = 70
- 70 + 2 = 72
- 72 + 7 = 79
- Complete Calculation: Mean = 79 / 10
- **Result**: The mean is **7.9** (to the nearest tenth).
3. **Variance and Standard Deviation:**
However, the steps to calculate variance and standard deviation are not shown in the image. But for educational purposes, these values are calculated as follows:
- **Variance**: Measures the spread of numbers.
- Formula for Population Variance: \( \sigma^2 = \frac{1}{N} \sum_{i=1}^{N} (X_i - \mu)^2 \)
- Here, \( N \)
