Let's figure this out as though we have no idea what the answer would be.
Step One
Find the new five numbers.
3*3, 8*3, 12*3, 17*3, 25*3
9 , 24 , 36, 51, 75
Step 2
Find the average
(9 + 24 + 36 + 51 + 75)/5 = 195/5 = 39
Step 3
Subtract the individual numbers from the average
(39 - 9) = 30
(39 -24) = 15
(39 - 36) = 3
(39 - 51) = - 12
(39 - 75) = -36
Step 4
Square the results from Step 3
30^2 = 900
15^2 = 225
3^2 = 9
(-12)^2 = 144
(-36)^2 = 1296
Step 5
Take the average of the results from step 4
(900 + 225 + 9 + 144 + 1296)/5
2574 / 5 = 514.8
Step 6
Take the square root of the result from step 5
deviation = sqrt(514.8)
deviation = 22.689
Step seven
Compare the two standard deviations.
s2/s1 = 22.689 / 7.563 = 3
Conclusion
If you are given 1 set of numbers to find a population standard deviation and you multiply each member by a, then the result will be a * the standard population deviation of the first set of numbers.
Note
Your calculator will do this as well, but you have to know how to enter the data into your calculator. That requires that you follow the directions carefully.

Answer:
x = 10 , y = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
8x - 10 and 7x are alternate angles and are congruent , then
8x - 10 = 7x ( subtract 7x from both sides )
x - 10 = 0 ( add 10 to both sides )
x = 10
Then
8x - 10 = 8(10) - 10 = 80 - 10 = 70
6y + 20 and 8x - 10 are same- side interior angles and sum to 180°, that is
6y + 20 + 70 = 180
6y + 90 = 180 ( subtract 90 from both sides )
6y = 90 ( divide both sides by 6 )
y = 15
