No worries. Actually what you can do is to submit the pic as an answer to your own question (like the one you did for this one)

Usually there is no +c version as the convention is -c. Did you encounter +c somewhere eg. Some practice question?

i haven’t encountered +c before hence wondering if +c formula does exist. btw can help take a look at my workings in pencil ? i didn’t use the usual formula . i used some summation formula instead . do u think it’s legit

Aren't the workings in your picture based on the notes' formula itself? Looks ok to me

Btw if you happen to encounter +c, just remember that + c = - (-c).

So you'll just have to swap the c in the formula for the mean to -c. As for variance, +c or -c doesn't affect it since it's a constant.

Yes, perfectly logical.

From the formula

xbar = ∑(x-c) / n + c

= ∑x / n - ∑c / n + c

= ∑x / n - c + c

= ∑x / n

Your working and the formula's lead to the same result.

It's just that the formula saves you time and the steps.
