Okay, Trinity🦋💓, let's break down this statistics problem.

Part 1· 3 steps

Calculate the standard deviation

This calculation uses the first table provided in the image:

Number of fruits per tree (xx)012345678
Frequency (ff)134610161280
  1. Calculate the total frequency (∑f\sum f), sum of xfxf (∑xf\sum xf), and sum of x2fx^2f (∑x2f\sum x^2f).

    ∑f=1+3+4+6+10+16+12+8+0=60\sum f = 1+3+4+6+10+16+12+8+0 = 60 ∑xf=(0×1)+(1×3)+(2×4)+(3×6)+(4×10)+(5×16)+(6×12)+(7×8)+(8×0)\sum xf = (0 \times 1) + (1 \times 3) + (2 \times 4) + (3 \times 6) + (4 \times 10) + (5 \times 16) + (6 \times 12) + (7 \times 8) + (8 \times 0) ∑xf=0+3+8+18+40+80+72+56+0=277\sum xf = 0 + 3 + 8 + 18 + 40 + 80 + 72 + 56 + 0 = 277 ∑x2f=(02×1)+(12×3)+(22×4)+(32×6)+(42×10)+(52×16)+(62×12)+(72×8)+(82×0)\sum x^2f = (0^2 \times 1) + (1^2 \times 3) + (2^2 \times 4) + (3^2 \times 6) + (4^2 \times 10) + (5^2 \times 16) + (6^2 \times 12) + (7^2 \times 8) + (8^2 \times 0) ∑x2f=0+3+16+54+160+400+432+392+0=1457\sum x^2f = 0 + 3 + 16 + 54 + 160 + 400 + 432 + 392 + 0 = 1457
  2. Calculate the mean (xˉ\bar{x}).

    xˉ=∑xf∑f=27760≈4.6167\bar{x} = \frac{\sum xf}{\sum f} = \frac{277}{60} \approx 4.6167
  3. Calculate the standard deviation (σ\sigma).

    The formula for standard deviation is σ=∑x2f∑f−(∑xf∑f)2\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{\sum x^2f}{\sum f} - \left(\frac{\sum xf}{\sum f}\right)^2}.

    σ=145760−(27760)2\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{1457}{60} - \left(\frac{277}{60}\right)^2} σ=24.283333−(4.616667)2\sigma = \sqrt{24.283333 - (4.616667)^2} σ=24.283333−21.313611\sigma = \sqrt{24.283333 - 21.313611} σ=2.969722\sigma = \sqrt{2.969722} σ≈1.723\sigma \approx 1.723

    The standard deviation is 1.723\boxed{1.723}.

Part 2· 3 steps

Complete the table and draw the graph

There is an inconsistency between the first table and the values given in the second table. We will assume the given Cumulative Frequency (CF) and Relative Cumulative Frequency (RCF) for x=3x=3 in the second table are correct to determine the total frequency, and then complete the table consistently.

  1. Determine the total frequency.

    From the row for x=3x=3 in the second table, CF = 10 and RCF = 0.10.
    Since RCF = CF / Total Frequency, we have:

    Total Frequency=CFRCF=100.10=100\text{Total Frequency} = \frac{\text{CF}}{\text{RCF}} = \frac{10}{0.10} = 100
  2. Complete the table using Total Frequency = 100.

    • For x=2x=2: RCF = 0.02. CF (cc) = RCF ×\times Total Frequency = 0.02×100=20.02 \times 100 = 2.
    • For x=4x=4: CF = 16. RCF = CF / Total Frequency = 16/100=0.1616 / 100 = 0.16. (Note: The question's table shows 0.17, but 0.16 is consistent with a total frequency of 100).
    • For x=5x=5: CF = 42. RCF = CF / Total Frequency = 42/100=0.4242 / 100 = 0.42.
    • For x=7x=7: CF = 60. RCF = CF / Total Frequency = 60/100=0.6060 / 100 = 0.60.
    • For x=8x=8: CF = 60. RCF = CF / Total Frequency = 60/100=0.6060 / 100 = 0.60.

    The completed table is:

    Number of fruits per tree (xx)234578
    Cumulative Frequency (CF)21016426060
    Relative cumulative frequency0.020.100.160.420.600.60
  3. Instructions for drawing the relative cumulative frequency curve.

    Plot the points (upper class boundary, relative cumulative frequency). For discrete data, the upper class boundary for an xx value is x+0.5x+0.5.
    The points to plot are:

    • (1.5,0)(1.5, 0) (starting point, assuming no fruits below x=2x=2)
    • (2.5,0.02)(2.5, 0.02)
    • (3.5,0.10)(3.5, 0.10)
    • (4.5,0.16)(4.5, 0.16)
    • (5.5,0.42)(5.5, 0.42)
    • (7.5,0.60)(7.5, 0.60)
    • (8.5,0.60)(8.5, 0.60)

    Use the given scales:

    • X-axis: 2 cm to represent 1 unit for 0≤x≤80 \le x \le 8.
    • Y-axis: 2 cm to represent 0.1 for relative cumulative frequency. Draw a smooth curve connecting these points.

Part 3· 2 steps

Use the graph to find the 80th percentile

  1. Locate the 80th percentile on the y-axis.

    The 80th percentile corresponds to a relative cumulative frequency of 0.80.

  2. Read the value from the graph.

    On your drawn graph, find 0.80 on the y-axis. Draw a horizontal line from y=0.80y=0.80 until it intersects the relative cumulative frequency curve. From the intersection point, draw a vertical line down to the x-axis. The value where this vertical line intersects the x-axis is the 80th percentile.
    Since I cannot draw the graph, I cannot provide the numerical answer for the 80th percentile.
