Question Type 6: Given values of a specific data set and some characteristics, being able to find the similar values for another data set Bootcamps
Question 1
Skill question
The median of a data set is 20. If each observation is decreased by 7, what is the median of the new data set?
Question 2
Skill question
The sum of 12 observations is 96. If each observation is multiplied by 1.5, what is the sum of the new observations?
Question 3
Skill question
The mean of a data set is 8. If 3 is added to each data point, what is the mean of the new data set?
Question 4
Skill question
The range of a data set is 30. If each observation is multiplied by -3, what is the range of the transformed data set?
Question 5
Skill question
A data set has variance 4. What is the variance of a new data set formed by multiplying each value by 5?
Question 6
Skill question
In a distribution, the 90th percentile is 65. After adding 10 to every score, what is the new 90th percentile?
Question 7
Skill question
A data set has standard deviation 3. If each data point is divided by 6, find the standard deviation of the resulting data set.
Question 8
Skill question
A data set has interquartile range (IQR) equal to 15. After multiplying each observation by 0.4 and then adding 5, find the new IQR.
Question 9
Skill question
A data set has mean 50 and standard deviation 5. Convert each data point to a z-score by z=(x−50)/5. Find the mean and standard deviation of the z-scores.
Question 10
Skill question
A data set has mean 12 and variance 16. Each value is transformed by y=2x−4. Find the mean and variance of y.
Question 11
Skill question
A data set of size n=8 has sum of squares S=200 and mean xˉ=3. Find the variance of the data set formed by adding 2 to each value.
Question 12
Skill question
A data set of 10 values has mean 7 and variance 9. Define a new data set by yi=4(xi+2). Find the mean and variance of the y data set.
