1) Why is there a difference between the calculation for the sample standard deviation and population standard deviation?
A) The adjustment to the denominator of the sample variance formula results in an underestimate of the population variance.
B) Each sample will have a variance that is equal to the population variance.
C) No sample will have a variance that is exactly equal to the population variance.
D) The adjustment to the denominator of the sample variance formula results in a more accurate estimate of the population variance.
