In describing a dataset, what does the standard deviation or standard error represent?

The standard deviation is a statistic that lets you know how tightly all the subjects are clustered around the mean in a set of data. A single standard deviation away from the mean in either of the directions accounts for somewhere around 68 % of data. If two standard deviations are away from the mean, it accounts for around 95% of data. If three standard deviations are away it accounts for 99% of the data.

1) The total range of variation in the dataset is called RANGE.

3) A measure of the variation around the estimate of the mean is SEM (STANDARD ERROR OF THE MEAN).

4) The most common value observed (highest frequency) is MODE.

step-by-step explanation:

option c) graph of line going through 1, 4 and 3, 10

step-by-step explanation:

let y equal to margo's coin collection

let x equal to number of years

at the begining x=0, y=1 → point=(x,y)→point=(0,1)

she adds 3 coins per year, then y=1+3x

at x=1, y=1+3(1)=1+3→y=4→point=(x,y)→point=(1,4)

at x=3, y=1+3(3)=1+9→y=10→point=(x,y)→point=(3,10)

the graph of line going through (1, 4) and (3, 10), then the option c is the correct.
