Problem

The temperature deviations from the average (in ∘^{\circ}C) recorded in a city over 12 consecutive days were: −1.5,  0.3,  1.2,  −0.8,  0.0,  1.7,  −1.1,  0.9,  −0.2,  1.4,  −0.9,  0.0-1.5,\;0.3,\;1.2,\;-0.8,\;0.0,\;1.7,\;-1.1,\;0.9,\;-0.2,\;1.4,\;-0.9,\;0.0. Solve the following. (i) Compute the mean temperature deviation. (ii) Determine the variance of the deviations. (iii) Hence find the standard deviation, correct to two decimal places.
