Suppose that 2 were subtracted from each of the values in a data set that originally had a standard deviation of 7.5. What would be the standard
deviation of the resulting data?
A. 2
B. 7.5
C. 9.5
O D. 5.5

Option B. 7.5 is the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us define standard deviation first.

Standard deviation is the square root of variance. Standard Deviation tells us that how far are the values in a data set from the mean.

Now, if a constant is subtracted from all values of a dataset, the standard deviation remains the same. Only the origin or mean of the data changes by subtracting a constant from whole data set.

Given that the standard deviation of dataset is 7.5

Subtracting 2 from each value of dataset will not change the standard deviation as 2 is a constant.

Hence,

Option B. 7.5 is the correct answer
