Answer:

b. 610, 50

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean score is the sum of all scores divided by the number of tests.

So if you increase the grade on each test, the mean will increase.

The standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the power of 2 of all scores subtracted by the mean(that is, the distance between each score and the mean)  and divided by the number of tests.

As you increase each score by 10, the mean will change by 10. However, the distance between each score and the mean will stay the same, which means that the standard deviations remains unchanged.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean = 600

Standard deviation = 50

Scores increased by 10

So

Mean = 610

Standard deviation = 50

So the correct answer is:

b. 610, 50

dexar [7]

Answer:

Number of pieces of candy in the bowl=64

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x=number of pieces of candy in a bowl

Shirley took=1/2 of x

=1/2x

Remaining

x-1/2x

= 2x-x/2

=1/2x

Rose took half of the pieces left in the bowl=1/2 of 1/2x

=1/2*1/2x

=1/4x

Remaining

1/2x-1/4x

=2x-x/4

=1/4x

Susan took 1/2 of the remaining pieces of candy=1/2 of 1/4x

=1/2*1/4x

=1/8x

Remaining 8

1/8x=8

x=8÷1/8

=8*8/1

=64

x=64
