A variance is a deviation from the town code. Example: Homeowner 1 applied for an area variance for side yard setback for a proposed shed. Meaning the homeowner was required by code to place the shed 20' from his side property line but is asking the Zoning Board to place it 5' from the side property line.

What is a difference between a pooled variance and a combined variance?

Pooled variance is a method for estimating variance given several different samples taken in different circumstances where the mean may vary between samples but the true variance (equivalently, precision) is assumed to remain the same. A combined variance is a method for estimating variance from several samples, given the size, mean and standard deviation of each. Mathematically, a combined variance is equal to the calculated variance of the set of the data from all samples. See links.


Can the Variance ever be smaller than standard deviation?
