9. Give an example of a question that can be answered with CV ?
Explanation / Answer
5. a) Sample mean ( m ) = x / n
b)Population mean ( ) = x / N
c)Sample Variance ( s2 ) = (x -m)2 / (n-1)
d)Sample Standard Deviation ( s ) = ((x - )2 / (n-1))
e) Population Variance ( 2 ) = (x -m)2 / N
e) Population Standard Deviation ( ) = ((x - )2 / N)
6. Standard deviation is the _____________Square root____________________ of the variance.
7. List important properties of Standard deviation
a. It measures the spread of data around the mean.
b. Standard deviation is non-negative.
c. It is sensitive to outliers.
d. If all values of the set are the same, standard deviation is zero.
8. Write the formula for the Coefficient of Variation (CV)
Co-efficient of variation is the ratio of mean to standard deviation.
CV = /
9. Give an example of a question that can be answered with CV ?
