What is the variance of a data set?

• The most frequent value in the data set

• The average of the squared differences from the mean

• The middle value of the data set

• The average of the data set

How is the standard deviation related to the variance?

• It is the sum of the variance

• It is the absolute value of the variance

• It is the square root of the variance

• It is the square of the variance

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

• The values are closer together

• The data set has a higher mean

• The values are more spread out

• The data set has more modes

Using a calculator, what is the standard deviation of the data set: 127, 81, 135, 197, 115, 72, 152, 63, 164?

• 29.20

• 41.56

• 32.22
