The math grades on the final exam varied greatly. Using the scores below, how many scores were within one standard deviation of the mean? How many scores were within two standard deviations of
the mean?

96 88 79
The scores for math test #3 were normally distributed. If 15 students had a mean score of 74.8% and a standard deviation of 7.57, how many students scored above an 85%?
3. If you know the standard deviation, how do you find the variance?
4. To get the best deal on a stereo system, Louis called eight appliance stores and asked for the cost of a specific model. The prices he was quoted are listed below:
2. $216 $135 $281 $189 $218 $193 $299 $235

Create a frequency distribution table for the number of times a
number was rolled on a die. (It may be helpful to print or write out all of
the numbers so none are excluded.)

b.
How many times did a number of 4 or greater get thrown?
c.
How many times was an odd number thrown?
d.
How many times did a number greater than or equal to 2 and
less than or equal to 5 get thrown?
