HELP! I am really confused and need someone to explain this to me!! Draw two symmetric (not skewed) with the same means but different standard deviations. Explain the similarities or differences in means and standard deviations.

See the diagram below

There are infinitely many ways to do this. So there isn't one set answer. However, all of the answers have these properties in common.

In the diagram below, I've made distribution B wider and more spread out compared to distribution A. Distribution B has a higher standard deviation. The larger the standard deviation is, the more spread out the data values will be. Standard deviation is always some positive number.

Both distributions are centered at 0, which is the mean. You could change the center to whatever you want, but make sure both distributions have this same center value.

As the diagram shows, each curve is symmetric about the center point. The left half can be reflected over the center line to get the right half, and vice versa. The curves peak at the center because this is where the majority of the data values are located. As you move to either end, the curve levels off to indicate not as many individuals are found here.

fist on the left goes with the third on the right. second on the left goes with the fourth on the right. third on the left goes with the second on the right. the fourth on the left goes with first on the right
