The sum of deviations about the arithmetic mean is always equal to zero. A. True B. False 2. The average of the squared deviations about the arithmetic mean is called the variance. A. True B. False 3. The sample standard deviation is calculated by taking the square root of the population standard deviation. A. True B. False 4. The variance of a sample of 81 observations equals 64. The standard deviation of the sample equals a. 9. b. 4096. c. 8. d. 6561.

In calculating the sample variance, the sum of the squared deviations around the mean is divided by n - 1 to avoid underestimating the unknown population variance. True or False

1. For any sample size of 110, the population mean, the mean of the sampling distribution for the sample means, and the sample mean will always be equal to each other TRUE or FALSE? 2. A larger sample size will result in a smaller sample standard deviation for the sample. TRUE or FALSE 3. If the sample size is 100 and the population standard deviation is 20, then the standard deviation of the sampling distribution for means is 2
