Suppose the class took a 40-point quiz. Results show a mean score of 30,
median 32, IQR 8, SD 6, min 12, and Q1 27. (Suppose YOU got a 35.)
What happens to each of the statistics if
I decide to weight the quiz as 50 points, and will add 10 points to every
score. Your score is now 45.
I decide to weight the quiz as 80 points, and double each score. Your
score is now 70.
I decide to count the quiz as 100 points; Ill double each score and add 20
points. Your score is now 90.

Shifting Data
Shifting data:
Adding (or subtracting) a constant amount to
each value just adds (or subtracts) the same
constant to (from) the mean. This is true for the
median and other measures of position too.
In general, adding a constant to every data
value adds the same constant to measures of
center and percentiles, but leaves measures of
spread unchanged.

Slide6-13
Rescaling Data
Rescaling data:
When we divide or multiply all the data values
by any constant value, all measures of position
(such as the mean, median and percentiles)
and measures of spread (such as the range,
IQR, and standard deviation) are divided or
multiplied by that same constant value.

And, when we have data, make a histogram to
check the Nearly Normal Condition to make sure
we can use the Normal model to model the
distribution.
