Question
Suppose the mean of a math
exam score is 70 with a
standard deviation of 20. If
each score is increased by 2
and then each result is
multiplied by 1.05, then new
mean and standard
deviation are
O a. µ = 76.5 and o = 20.1
O b. µ = 75.6 and o = 21.0
O C.µ = 75.6 and o = 20.0
d. µ = 75.6 and o = 22.6
O e. µ = 72.0 and o = 22.0
