MATH 115-A02 Summer 2017 Homework: HW #10: Sec 12.1-12.3 Score: 0.5 of 1 pt 12.3.33 36 of 38 (38 complete) Subtract 10 from each item in the given sample, and compute the mean and standard deviation of the new sample. 48, 32, 37, 14, 22, 33, 37 The mean of the new sample is 21.86 (Simplify your answer. Type an integer or decimal rounded to the nearest hundredth as needed.) The standard deviation of the new sample is 11.04 (Simplify your answer. Type an integer or decimal rounded to the nearest hundredth as needed.)

Explanation / Answer

1)

(48 - 10) = 38 , ( 32 -10) = 22 , ( 37 -10) = 27 , ( 14 -10) = 10 , ( 22 -10) = 12 , ( 33 -10) = 23 , ( 37 -10) = 27

mean = ( 38 + 22 + 27 + 10 + 12 + 23 + 27) / 7 = 22.714

Standard deviation = 9.552


2)
mean = (23+42+35+40+26+32)/6 = 33

standard deviation = (23-33)^2 + (42 - 23)^2 + ( 35 - 33)^2 + ( 40-33)^2 + ( 26-33)^2 + ( 32- 33)^2 / 5
Standard deviation = 7.536

The mean of the new data sample is = 5 * 33 = 165

The standard deviation of the new data sample is = 5 * 7.536 = 37.68
