If the standard deviation of a data set is 4, what is the variance?

• 4

What does this symbol represent?

• Variance
• Standard Deviation
• Mean Absolute Deviation
• Sigma

What does variance represent?

• How many different variations are in the data set.

• How the population varies compared to the sample.

• How spread out each data value is from the mean.

• The range, but with a bunch of other stuff going on.

How do you calculate the standard deviation?

• Divide the variance by 2.

• Its a long process and I can't explain it right now.

• Find the mean and multiply it by the variance.

• Take the square root of the variance.
