F&J Farms sells super egg-laying chickens that historically weigh on average 3 pounds with a standard deviation of 0.4 pounds. However, it has been discovered that the chickens actually weigh twice as much as they used to. What is actual the mean and standard deviation of the chickens?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Mean of chicken = 6 pounds, Standard Deviation of chicken = 0.6 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Chickens mean & standard deviation = 3 & 0.4 pounds respectively. Chickens considered weigh twice actually now.

If all numbers in the series are multiplied by a constant, the mean gets multiplied by that constant. So, new mean = 3 x 2 = 6

If all numbers in the series are multiplied by a constant, the standard deviation gets multiplied by that constant. So, new standard deviation = 0.4 x 2 = 0.8
