DESCRIPTION The formula for the standard deviation is EQ 221 while the formula for the weighted standard deviation is EQ 222 where w is the weight for the ith observation N is the number of nonzero weights and is the weighted mean of the observation Let’s start with an example. I divided the class into 2 teams, A and B. Coincidentally, the quiz average for team A is the same as team B, 81.5. So we expect a graph of their scores to be about the same, right?.
