How do you calculate the standard deviation from variance?

Back

Standard deviation is the square root of the variance.

Front

What does a higher standard deviation indicate about a data set?

Back

A higher standard deviation indicates that the data points are more spread out from the mean.

Front

What is a skewed distribution?

Back

A skewed distribution is one where the data points are not symmetrically distributed around the mean.

Front

What does it mean if a distribution is skewed left?

Back

If a distribution is skewed left, it has a longer tail on the left side, indicating that there are more lower values.

Front

What is a bimodal distribution?

Back

Front

What is the difference between mean, median, and mode?

Back
