In the interactive spreadsheet, create a data set consisting of any five numbers in column B (cells B2 through B6, which currently contain the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. You can just click on the cell and type over them). The mean and sample standard deviation of these five numbers will be computed in cells B7 and B8 respectively.[br][br]Columns C through F, create new data sets by transform your data as indicated in the first cell. In column C, you would add 10 to each of the numbers you entered in column B. The means and sample standard deviations of the cells will be computed below each data set.[br][br][b][i]What conclusion can you make about changes in the mean and the standard deviation when the same number is added to or subtracted from each score in a data set?[/i][/b][br][br]Use the conclusion you just reached to simplify the calculation of the mean and standard deviation for the distribution 598, 597, 599, 596, 600. Check yourself by entering this data in cells G2 through G6.
