Question

A sample of n = 9 scores has a variance of s2 = 144. what is the standard deviation for this sample?​

Answer 1

The relationship between variance and standard deviation is simply:

s = standard deviation

s^2 = variance

s = sqrt (s^2)

Therefore calculating for s:

s = sqrt (144)

s = 12

So we get the standard deviation is simply 12 scores.
