Solution

To find the coefficient of variation, we first need to calculate the mean (average) and the standard deviation of the data set.

Step 1: Calculate the mean Add up all the numbers and then divide by the number of numbers. (138 + 163 + 150 + 147 + 71 + 56 + 58 + 28 + 29) / 9 = 840 / 9 = 93.33

Step 2: Calculate the standard deviation First, subtract the mean from each number and square the result. (138-93.33)^2 = 1994.89 (163-93.33)^2 = 4861.69 (150-93.33)^2 = 3200.69 (147-93.33)^2 = 2874.69 (71-93.33)^2 = 498.69 (56-93.33)^2 = 1396.69 (58-93.33)^2 = 1250.69 (28-93.33)^2 = 4286.69 (29-93.33)^2 = 4134.69

Add all these squared numbers together and divide by the number of numbers minus 1. (1994.89 + 4861.69 + 3200.69 + 2874.69 + 498.69 + 1396.69 + 1250.69 + 4286.69 + 4134.69) / (9-1) = 23998.82 / 8 = 2999.85

Then, take the square root of that number to get the standard deviation. √2999.85 = 54.77

Step 3: Calculate the coefficient of variation Divide the standard deviation by the mean and multiply by 100 to get the coefficient of variation as a percentage. (54.77 / 93.33) * 100 = 58.7%

So, the coefficient of variation for the number of Field Goals Made (FGM) is 0.587 or 58.7% when expressed as a percentage. The closest answer choice would be 0.592.
