Question

Because the two distributions displayed below have different ranges, they have the different standard deviations.
true or false

Answer 1

false, the range is just determined by minising the lowest from the highest, but the variables can still get you the same mean, which can lead to the same standard deviation

Answer 2

The answer is false. 

Different ranges do not always imply difference in SD. In fact, sometimes distributions can have similar descriptive statistics with different ranges.
