Answer:

A. Standard deviation is always a non-negative number.

Explanation:

The true statement about standard deviation is that, standard deviation is always a non-negative number.

A standard deviation is calculated by taking the square root of variance and as such the value of standard deviation is always a positive number and not a negative number.

Additionally, the variance of a sample population is calculated by the summation of all the squared distances obtained from the mean divided by the total number of samples. Hence, all the values of the variance are always positive (non-negative) numbers because they are squared. Consequently, the standard deviation would as well always be a non-negative number.

if I want to become a doctor in the future. which program for high school is best, Advanced placement (ap) or International Bacc
uysha [10]

Answer:

I would personally recommend taking AP courses for any medical degree. Many colleges or universities consider AP and IB classes to be equal, and unless you are planning to go to college/university out of the US, Advanced Placement classes will be more accepted. Another reason why I would advise against IB classes is that it is not worth it to only take specific classes and is more beneficial to take the full diploma course. Some places will allow you to take individual classes instead of the full program like you would in AP, but it is not a guarantee. AP classes allow you to specialize more and avoid any classes you feel particularly weak in.
