1. Multiplying each value in a data set by a constant is an
example of a transformation of the data.

2. The mean, median, and mode increase by the value of
the constant, but the range and standard deviation remain

the same.

1. A normal curve is a bell-shaped curve that is symmetric
about the mean.

Lesson 11.4
1. The computer science teacher selected students that are
easily accessible. So, the sample is a convenience sample.

The sample is biased because students in a computer
science class are more likely to visit the schools website.
2. Sample answer:
Place each students name on a small piece of paper in a

hat and draw 40 names.

1. A sample for which each member of a population has an
equal chance of being selected is a random sample.
2. An unbiased sample is representative of the population
being sampled, while a biased sample over or under

represents part of a population.
3. Because every tenth customer is surveyed, the sample is
systematic. Because the sample is representative of the

population, it is unbiased.
4. Because the sample is easy to reach, it is a convenience
sample. Because people who do not own dogs were not

surveyed, the sample is biased.
5. Because each student has an equal chance of being
selected, the sample is an unbiased random sample.

1. Standard deviation is a measure of dispersion that
describes the typical difference between a value in a data

set and the mean.
2. When every value in a data set is multiplied by the same
constant, the mean, median, mode, range, and standard

deviation are also multiplied by the constant.

1. Sample answer: You can eliminate choice D because a
probability of 0.99 is very close to 1, which is the total

area under the normal curve. Values between 4.06 and
4.14 do not represent the whole normal curve.
2. Sample answer: You can eliminate choice C because the
mode increases by the constant. The range and standard

deviation do not change.
