Measurement and Data Reasoning

If a number is added to a set that is far away from the mean, how does this affect standard deviation?

• increase
• decrease
• stay the same
• both increase and decrease

If a number is added to the set that is in the middle of the data, how does this affect the range?

• increase
• decrease
• stay the same
• both increase and decrease
