It has also led to Professor Higgs becoming the only person ever to have a fundamental particle named after him. (Wilson, 2013).It was regarded as the “God Particle” before but many physicists did not like the way it was called. Results to

Smallest Value Range = 67 – 23 Range = 44 To find the standard deviation: σ = √∑ (X - µ)2 N σ = √∑(X – 40.84) 2 = √5291.36 = √211.65 = 14.55 25 25 Exercise 82* a. To find the mean cost: X = ∑fM = 7,060 = $141.20 N 50 b. To find the standard deviation: s = √∑f (M - X)2 = √33,728 = √688.33 = 26.24 n – 1 50 - 1 c.

20%. Since all of the expected values for the distributions were over the standard values, the data suggested that the color distribution was not consistent with the advertised distribution. However, another possibility is that the color distributions truly are not accurate and were ball-parked for curious customers. 3. M&M Variability Analysis Through the use of a histogram and confidence interval of the standard deviation, the variance in the weight of individual M&Ms was analyzed

control limit and the lower control limit, making a purchase and sale of marketable securities only when one of these limits is reached. The assumption made here is that the net cash flows are normally distributed with a zero value of mean and a standard deviation. This model provides two control limits – the upper control limit and the lower control limit as well as a return point. When the firm’s cash limit fluctuates at random and touches the upper limit, the firm buys sufficient marketable securities
