Explain why the sample variance formula is [sum_{i=1}^{N} frac{left(y_{i}-bar{y} ight)^{2}}{N-1}] instead of [sum_{i=1}^{N} frac{left(y_{i}-bar{y} ight)^{2}}{N}]
Question:
Explain why the sample variance formula is
\[\sum_{i=1}^{N} \frac{\left(y_{i}-\bar{y}\right)^{2}}{N-1}\]
instead of
\[\sum_{i=1}^{N} \frac{\left(y_{i}-\bar{y}\right)^{2}}{N}\]
