'The Mean of the numbers 9, 7 , 8, 5, 11 is 8. What will be the new mean if we add 5 to all these numbers a. 5 b. 1.00 13.00 d. 3.00'
Consider the same dataset from Problem 1: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20. If 5 is added to each number in the dataset, what is the new mean? How does adding a constant to each data point in the sample affect the mean compared to the original mean?
