A researcher wishes to calculate the height of patients suffering from a heart disease. From patient records, the mean was computed to be 156cm, with a standard deviation of 5cm. Further investigation reveals that the scale was misaligned, and that all readings are 2cm too large, for example, a patient whose height is really 180cm was measured as 182 cm. Furthermore, the researcher would like to work with statistics based on meters (1 meter= 100 centimeters). What would be the revised values for the mean and standard deviation of the patients’ height?
