Adding a constant to each value in a data set does not change the distance between values so the standard deviation remains the same.
For example, consider the following numbers
2
,
3
,
4
,
4
,
5
,
6
,
8
,
10
for this set of data the standard deviation would be
s
=
√
∑
n
i=1
(
x
i
−

x
)
2
n
−
1
s
=
√
(

−
5.25
)
2

(

−
5.25
)
2

...
+
(
10
−
5.25
)
2
8
−
1
s
=
2.65922
If we were to add 5 to each value in this data set, the new set of values would be:
7
,
8
,
9
,
9
,
10
,
11
,
13
,
15
s
=
√
(
7
−
10.25
)
2

(
8
−
10.25
)
2

...
+
(
15
−
10.25
)
2
8
−
1
s
=
2.65922
As you can see the s.d. remains the same unless you multiply every value by a constant.

Given: ABCD is a rhombus, <br> Perimeter = 20,<br> AC:BD = 4:3 Find:<br> Area of ABCD.
REY [17]
4a=20⇒a=5

we know diagonals are perpendicular. if u look at one of the right triangles, you can see that for hypotenuse to be 5, the legs have to be 4 and 3 to satisfy the given ratio 4:3.

so, diagonals are 8 and 6 as we know that diagonals bisect each other.

Area=8*6/2=24

Four mathematicians, three physicists, and an engineer are to be seated equally spaced around a circular table. How many differe
Vesna [10]

First, we can choose the seats for the four mathematicians.  Then we seat the physicits, then the engineer.  There are 4! ways to seat the mathematicians, then 3! ways to seat the physicists, then 1! ways to seat the engineer.  But then we must divide by 8, because we can rotate the table, so there are 8!*4!*3!/8 = 725760 ways to seat everyone.
