**Young’s Modulus Calculations**

Suppose the value of Young's modulus (GPa) was determined for cast plates consisting of certain intermetallic substrates, resulting in the following sample observations:

- 116.6, 115.5, 114.7, 115.2, 115.9

### (a) Calculate the Sample Mean (\(\overline{x}\) in GPa).

\[ \text{Sample Mean } (\overline{x}) = \]
\[ \text{Deviation: Calculate the deviations from the mean.} \]

| \(x\)     | 116.6 | 115.5 | 114.7 | 115.2 | 115.9 |
|-----------|-------|-------|-------|-------|-------|
| Deviation |       |       |       |       |       |

### (b) Sample Variance and Standard Deviation

1. Use the deviations calculated in part (a) to obtain the sample variance (\(s^2\) in GPa²).

   \[ s^2 = \]

2. Use the deviations calculated in part (a) to obtain the sample standard deviation (\(s\) in GPa). (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

   \[ s = \]

### (c) Compute \(s^2\) Using Computational Formula

1. Calculate \(s^2\) (in GPa²) by using the computational formula for the numerator \(S_{xx}\).

   \[ \text{GPa}^2 = \]

### (d) Transform Observations

1. Subtract 100 from each observation to obtain a sample of transformed values. Now calculate the sample variance (\(s^2\) in GPa²) of these transformed values.

   \[ \text{GPa}^2 = \]

This exercise involves basic statistical techniques to analyze the variability and central tendency in a set of Young's modulus measurements.
