Can standard deviation be a negative?

No. Standard deviation is the square root of a non-negative number (the variance) and as such has to be at least zero. Please see the related links for a definition of standard deviation and some examples.


Does standard deviation and mean deviation measure dispersion the same?

No. The average of the deviations, or mean deviation, will always be zero. The standard deviation is the average squared deviation which is usually non-zero.


What is a measured standard?

Standard measurements are kilogram, meter, liter and second. Non-standard measurements are antique, ancient, archaic units like fathoms, acres, cubits, miles, stones, hundredweights, pounds, pecks, bushels, gills, pints, quarts, gallons which are only of interest to historians.


What does standard and non standard mean?

Standard components is a food technology term, when manufacturers buy in a standard component they would use a pre-made product in the production of their food. They help products to be the same in consistency, they are quick and easy to use in batch production of food products. Some examples are pre-made stock cubes, marzipan, icing, ready made pastry.


Why should we use chebyshev's theorem instead of the Empirical rule in a sampling in statistics?

Chebyshev's theorem is more versatile than the Empirical Rule because it applies to all distributions, not just normal distributions. While the Empirical Rule provides specific percentages for normally distributed data (approximately 68%, 95%, and 99.7% within one, two, and three standard deviations from the mean), Chebyshev's theorem guarantees that at least ( \frac{1}{k^2} ) of the data falls within ( k ) standard deviations from the mean for any ( k > 1 ). This makes Chebyshev's theorem particularly useful when dealing with non-normal distributions or when the shape of the data is unknown.

Certainly.


What are the non-symmetrical parts of the body?

testicles or breasts are commonly non symmetrical but in perfect situations there are no non symetricals


Can standard deviation be calculated for non normal data?

Standard deviation can be calculated using non-normal data, but isn't advised. You'll get abnormal results as the data isn't properly sorted, and the standard deviation will have a large window of accuracy.


Does a pretzel have symmetry?

Depends on the pretzel non-symmetrical ones:no the symmetrical ones: yes


What are the differences in perception and attractiveness between a symmetrical face and a non-symmetrical face?

Research suggests that people generally perceive symmetrical faces as more attractive than non-symmetrical faces. Symmetry is often associated with good health and genetic fitness, which may explain why symmetrical faces are considered more attractive. Non-symmetrical faces may be perceived as less attractive because they deviate from the "ideal" proportions that are typically associated with beauty.

What are non symmetrical shapes?

I dont really know. That is what I am trying to figure out !! I think non-symmetrical shapes are shapes where all sides are different lengths/sizes. For example, a square or rectangle would not be non-symmetrical. It would be symmetrial because not all of the sides are different lengths. Hope that kinda helps. If not, I'm sorry!!


What shape are non symmetrical shapes?

there is a lot like irregular shapes


What determines if a molecule is polar or non polar?

if the molecule is symmetrical, then it is nonpolar. if it is NOT symmetrical, it is polar. Ionic bonds form between a metal and a nonmetal.


Could a tessellation work without a non-semetrical shape?

Assuming that you mean non-symmetrical, the answer is yes.


Is a light bulb symmetrical?

Most light bulbs are symmetrical because it is easier to manufacture symmetrical objects, and because the light from a symmetrical bulb is emitted in a symmetrical pattern. However, light bulbs do not have to be symmetrical and some non-symmetrical bulbs are made for special purposes. Generally, it is only symmetrical across only one axis. If you divide from globe to base in the direct center, the other half should be the same.
