Question 5
Skill question
Determine the effect on the population variance if 5 is added to each data point in x={2,3,6,7,4,13,19,32,14,23,7,8,12,13} without recalculating from scratch.
Question 6
Skill question

Using the interquartile range, identify any outliers in the dataset x={2,3,6,7,4,13,19,32,14,23,7,8,12,13}.
Question 10
Skill question
A new data point 10 is added to the dataset x={2,3,6,7,4,13,19,32,14,23,7,8,12,13}. Calculate the new population variance of the 15-point dataset.
Question 11
Skill question
A new dataset y is formed by multiplying each element of x={2,3,6,7,4,13,19,32,14,23,7,8,12,13} by −3. Find the population variance and IQR of y.
Question 12
Skill question
