a.It serve to locate the distribution
b. Reveals how items are spread out on either side of the centre
c. Indicates high or low uniformity of the items.
d. Difference or variation among the values​

Answer 1

d. Difference or variation among the values

Answer 2

Option (a) It serves to locate the distribution is false regarding the Dispersion.

• The dispersion is defined as the extent up to which the data is scattered about an average.
• The dispersion reveals how items are spread out on either side of the center i.e. how much is the data deflected from the center.
• The dispersion indicates the deflection of numerical values, thus it indicates high or low uniformity of the items.
• The dispersion is the variation among the observed values and standard values.
• The more accurate data we have, the lesser is the dispersion of the data.

Hence, option (a) serves to locate the distribution is false regarding the Dispersion.
