Mean = 2. Variance = 1.
Variance is the squared deviation from the mean. (X bar - X data)^2
The mean, by itself, does not provide sufficient information to make any assessment of the sample variance.
Formally, the standard deviation is the square root of the variance. The variance is the mean of the squares of the difference between each observation and their mean value. An easier to remember form for variance is: the mean of the squares minus the square of the mean.
The variance is always positive. The variance is not directly related to the sign (nor magnitude) of the mean.
It means you can take a measure of the variance of the sample and expect that result to be consistent for the entire population, and the sample is a valid representation for/of the population and does not influence that measure of the population.
Yes, quite easily.
Z is a variable with mean 0 and variance 1.Z is a variable with mean 0 and variance 1.Z is a variable with mean 0 and variance 1.Z is a variable with mean 0 and variance 1.
A variance is a measure of how far a set of numbers is spread out around its mean.
Since Variance is the average of the squared distanced from the mean, Variance must be a non negative number.
Mean = 2. Variance = 1.

you have to first find the Mean then subtract each of the results from the mean and then square them. then you divide by the total amount of results and that gives you the variance. If you square root the variance you will get the standard deviation
A pair of dice, or "paradise".
mean = 5, variance = 5
The mean, by itself, does not provide sufficient information to make any assessment of the sample variance.
Formally, the standard deviation is the square root of the variance. The variance is the mean of the squares of the difference between each observation and their mean value. An easier to remember form for variance is: the mean of the squares minus the square of the mean.
