    Variability describes how the data are spread out. If the data are very close to each other, then there is low variability. If the data are very spread out, then there is high variability.

If the data are very spread out, then there is high variability. How do you measure variability? It would be good to have a number that measures it. This section will describe some of the different measures of variability, also known as variation.

    The calculated \(\chi^2\) test statistic, 6.96, is in the tail therefore at a 0.05 level of significance, we cannot accept the null hypothesis that the variance in the donut filling is equal to 0.04 c...The calculated \(\chi^2\) test statistic, 6.96, is in the tail therefore at a 0.05 level of significance, we cannot accept the null hypothesis that the variance in the donut filling is equal to 0.04 cups. State the null and alternative hypotheses, compute the degrees of freedom, the test statistic, sketch the graph of the distribution and mark the area associated with the level of confidence, and draw a conclusion.

    In addition to the mean and median, which are measures of the "typical" or "middle" value, we also need a measure of how "spread out" or varied each data set is.

There are several ways to measure this "spread" of the data.
