The variance formula is:

[tex]\begin{gathered} Variance=\sum_^(x^2)\text{ - }(\sum_^x)^2 \\ \sum_^(x^2)\text{ = }\sum_^x^2p(x)=0.12+0.56+0.38+0+0.15=1.21 \\ \sum_^x=\sum_^xp(x)=\text{ -0.09 - 0.28 -0.38+0+0.15= -0.6} \\ \\ Var\imaginaryI ance=\sum_^(x^2)\text{ -\lparen}\sum_^x)^2 \\ Variance=1.21\text{ - \lparen-0.6\rparen}^2 \\ Variance=1.21\text{ - }0.36 \\ Variance=0.8 \end{gathered}[/tex]
