Calculate the mean of the dataset: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10.
Add all the numbers and divide by the total count.
What is the variance for the sample data: 1, 2, 3?
Remember to average the squared deviations from the mean.
What does standard deviation measure?
Think about which term relates to dispersion or spread.
True or False: Variance can be negative.
Consider what happens when you square a negative number.
