When a few data points are repeated in a data set, the results are often arrayed in a fre- quency table. For example, a quiz given to each of 25 students was graded on a four-point scale (0, 1, 2, 3), 3 being a perfect score. The results are as follows. Score (X) Frequency (F) Proportion (P) 3 16 .64 4 .16 1 2 .08 3 .12 a. Show how the average score can be calculated by using the frequencies. b. Show how the average score can be calculated by using the proportions. c. Calculate the standard deviation of these scores.
