ch 2 the measure of dispersion can never be
zero
negative
one
positive
Brief Explanations
Measures of dispersion like range, variance, and standard - deviation are based on differences (squared in case of variance and standard - deviation). Since squared values and non - negative differences are involved in their calculations, they cannot be negative. A measure of dispersion of zero indicates all data points are the same. Values of one or positive are possible depending on the data set.
