B=books
Sold half of book: b/2
Bought six more: b/2+
Now has 12: b/2+6=12
Subtract 6 on both sides: b/2+6-6=12-6
b/2=6
Multiply both sides by 2: b=12
Answer= 12 books

Write two sets of 5 different numbers that have the same mean but different standard deviations
Zina [86]

Answer:

The sets could be 5, 5, 5, 5, 5 and 0, 10, 20, -10, 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard deviations are a measure of how far the average point is away from the mean. In the first example, each term is exactly the mean. In the second set, some are quite a distance from the mean and therefore, it would have a bigger standard deviation.
