Let $r$ be the range and $S^2 = \frac{1}{n - 1} \sum_{i = 1}^n (x_i - \bar{x})^2$ be the variance of a set of observations $x_1, x_2, \dots, x_n$. Then:

  • A
    $S \le r \sqrt{\frac{n}{n - 1}}$
  • B
    $S = r \sqrt{\frac{n}{n - 1}}$
  • C
    $S \ge r \sqrt{\frac{n}{n - 1}}$
  • D
    None of these
