If 400 test scores are distributed with a mean of 150 and s = 9, the variance of the test scores is: 2.67 3 44.44 81 10 1 2 3 4 5
A set of 10 scores has a mean of 50 and s = 8 A set of 10 scores has a mean of 50 and s = 8. If you add 2 points to every score, the new standard deviation will be: 6 8 10 Cannot be determined 1 2 3 4 5
A set of 10 scores has a mean of 50 and s = 8 A set of 10 scores has a mean of 50 and s = 8. If you double each score, the new “s” will be: 4 8 16 64 10 1 2 3 4 5
