Question 36272: hi. Could you help me understand standard deviation? Here is my problem:
Consider the following data set: 28, 34, 41, 19, 17, 23.
a) Compute the mean and standard deviation of the data set
b) Suppose each value is mulitplied by two and then 5 is added to each of the values after each is multiplied by two. Compute the mean and standard deviation of this new data set.
Thanks for your help!!!
