Respuesta :
The answer is A. The data is a sample, so you can determine every answer with the word 'population' in it to be wrong.
Answer with explanation:
Formula to find variance of Population
[tex](\sigma)^2=(\text{Variance})^2=\frac{(\text{Each variate in the data set}-\text{Mean of the data set})^2}{\text{total number of variate}}[/tex]
Formula to find variance of a Sample
[tex](\sigma_{1})^2=(\text{Variance})^2=\frac{(\text{Each variate in the data set}-\text{Mean of the data set})^2}{\text{total number of variate}-1}[/tex]
The meaning of the word Variance, is how dispersed the variate are from mean.
Option A
The data is a sample and is expected to be more dispersed from the mean.
