    The answer is the mean, mode, and median increases by 4, the range of times is the same.

    Week 1: Week 2:

    Student - Hours Student - Hours

    Bob 19 Bob 23

    James 10 James 14

    Karen 15 Karen 19

    Rosario 17 Rosario 21

    Antoine 10 Antoine 14

    The mean is the sum of all values divided by the number of values:

    Week 1: (19 + 10 + 15 + 17 + 10 + 16 + 13) / 7 = 100/7 = 14.28

    Week 2: (23 + 14 + 19 + 21 + 14 + 20 + 17) / 7 = 128/7 = 18.28

    The difference in means between Week 2 and Week 1 is 4 (18.28 - 14.28 = 4)

    The median is the middle value. To calculate, first rearrange values from the lowest to the highest and then find the middle value:

    Week 1: 10, 10, 13, 15, 16, 17, 19 - The median is 15.

    Week 2: 14, 14, 17, 19, 20, 21, 23 - The median is 19.

    The difference in medians between Week 2 and Week 1 is 4 (19 - 15 = 4)

    The mode is the value that occurs most frequently.

    Week 1: 10, 10, 13, 15, 16, 17, 19 - The mode is 10.

    Week 2: 14, 14, 17, 19, 20, 21, 23 - The mode is 14.

    The difference in modes between Week 2 and Week 1 is 4 (14 - 10 = 4)

    The range of times is the difference between the highest and the lowest value.

    Week 1: 10, 10, 13, 15, 16, 17, 19 - The range of times is 9 (19 - 10 = 9).

    Week 2: 14, 14, 17, 19, 20, 21, 23 - The median is 9 (23 - 14 = 9).

    The difference in the ranges of times between Week 2 and Week 1 is 0 (9 - 9 = 0)
