Answer:
[tex]\sigma=6.16[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
By definition, the variance V of a population is defined as:
[tex]V = \sigma^2[/tex]
Where [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation
We know that [tex]V = 38[/tex], then we can solve the equation for the standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex]
[tex]38 = \sigma^2[/tex]
[tex]\sigma^2=38[/tex]
[tex]\sigma=\sqrt{38}[/tex]
[tex]\sigma=6.16[/tex]
Finally the standard deviation is: [tex]\sigma=6.16[/tex]
