How do Range and Quartile deviation measure the dispersion?
Range and quartile deviation measure the dispersion by calculating the spread within which the values lie.
In the previous question, calculate the relative measures of variation and indicate the value, which in your opinion is more reliable.
If in the previous question, each worker is given a hike of 10% in wages, how are the mean and standard deviation values affected?
The sum of 10 values is 100 and the sum of their squares is 1090. Find the coefficient of variation.
Calculate the mean deviation about mean and standard deviation for the following distribution:
