Which of the following statements are true? a. If each of 25 sample values is equal to 20 min, the standard deviation of the sample is 0 min. b. For any set of sample values, the standard deviation can never be a negative value. c. If the standard deviation of a sample is $3 \mathrm{kg}$, then the variance is $9 \mathrm{kg}$. d. If the variance of a sample is 16 sec 2 , then the standard deviation is 4 sec. e. If the standard deviation of a sample is $25 \mathrm{cm},$ then the variance is $5 \mathrm{cm} 2 .$
