Answer:

Mean = 78 ;

Standard deviation = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Mean score = 68

Standard deviation = 14

When a constant value is added to the individual value of a dataset, the new mean value will become the sum of the initial mean value and the constant term added to the values.

Constant Added score = 10

The mean of scaled test score will be:

Mean score + constant added score

68 + 10 = 78

The standard deviation remains unchanged ; Hence, standard deviation = 14
