  2. ESSENTIAL QUESTION:How is the shape and spread effected by linear transformations? Objective: • To transform data and find the effect on the shape and spread.

  3. Linear Transformation • A linear transformation changes the original variable x into the new variable xnew given by an equation of the form xnew = a + bx • Adding the constant a shifts all values of x upward or downward by the same amount. • Multiplying by the positive constant b changes the size of the unit of measurement.

  5. Effects of Linear Transformation To see the effect of a linear transformation on measures of center and spread, apply these rules: • Multiplying each observation by a positive number b multiplies both measures of center (mean and median) and measures of spread ( standard deviation and IQR) by b. • Adding the same number a ( either positive or negative to each observation adds a to measures of center and to quartiles but does not change measures of spread.
