Explain why the formula for sample variance is different from the formula for population variance. Why is it inappropriate to us

e the formula for population variance in calculating the variance of a sample
Mathematics

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference in the formula of population and sample variance can be explained as:

Population variance is said to be the value of variance that is calculated from population data, whereas sample variance refers to the variance calculated from sample data. This is the reason why value of denominator in the formula for variance in case of sample data is ‘n-1’, while it is ‘n’ for population data. Hence, the result of both variance and standard deviation derived from sample data is larger than those found out from population data.

What is the answer please help
hram777 [196]

Answer:

B: 22.5 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The interior angles of a pentagon add up to 540 degrees

(if you dont believe me you can turn a pentagon into three triangles, 3x180 = 540)

So you have four same angles say measure "x" degrees, and one final one that measures "5x" degrees, so 9x = 540, and x = 60

Unless I read the problem wrong, 60 degrees is the answer which is not an option :P

Edit: Yea I read it wrong, the final angle is 5 times the other four angles COMBINED, so that angle measures "20x" degrees.

The total would be 24x = 540, and so x = 22.5
