Question

A batch of data consists of 25 temperatures with a mean of 75F and standard deviation of 2F. These values were converted into temperatures measured in degrees Centigrade. (the relationship between Fahrenheit and Centigrade is F=32+1.8C).
(a). What is the mean of these new numbers?
(b). What is the standard deviation of the new batch of numbers? A batch of data consists of 25 temperatures with a mean of 75F and standard deviation of 2F.

(b). What is the standard deviation of the new batch of numbers?

Explanation / Answer

here C=(F-32)/1.8

a) hence mean E(C) =(E(F)-32)/1.8 =(75-32)/1.8=23.89

b) std deviation =std dev(F)/1.8 =2/1.8=1.11
