Standard deviations, σ, is generally preferred over range. Reason being, it is calculated from all the data and when there is outliers it will not be impacted as much as the range. It is great to not also that, The IQR is preferred to the standard deviation when the distribution is very highly skewed or when there are severe outliers, because the IQR is less sensitive to this features than standard deviation.

Ghella [55]

Answer:

Option D is the correct answer - Estimation is best defined as   a process of inferring the values of unknown samples statistics from those of known population parameters

Step-by-step explanation:

Estimation involves the usage of the value of a statistic derived from a sample to estimate the value of a corresponding population parameter.

The sample provides information that can be extended, through several formal or informal processes, to determine a range most suitable to describe the missing information.

An estimate that turns out to be incorrect would either be termed as over-estimation or under-estimation. If the estimate exceeds the actual result, it is termed as an over-estimation, and as an under-estimation, if the estimate came short of the actual result.

Thus, option D is correct.
