Answer:

The standard deviation is 5.83 kg

Explanation:

Variance and Standard Deviation

Given a data set of random values, the variance is defined as the average of the squared differences from the mean. We use this formula to calculate the variance:


\displaystyle \sigma^2=(\sum(x_i-\mu)^2)/(n)

Where
\mu is the mean of the values xi (i=1 to n), n the total number of values.

The standard deviation is known by the symbol
\sigma and is the square root of the variance.

We are given the value of the variance:


\sigma^2=34\ kg^2

We now compute the standard deviation


\sigma=√(34\ kg^2)=5.83\ kg

The standard deviation is 5.83 kg
