8. How do outliers affect the mean of a data set?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Zepler [3.9K]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

it depends on whether the outlier is a high outlier or a low outlier

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean of a data set is the average of the data set. So if I had the data set {5, 2, 10} the average would be (5+2+10)/3 = 5.667. Now if I added an outlier like 10,000 it would increase the mean significantly. It changes it significantly but I cannot say whether it increases or decreases it without knowing the value of the outlier, since if I had the outlier -10,000 that would decrease the mean, but I had the outlier 10,000 it would increase it. So it depends on whether the outlier is a high outlier or a low outlier

14.4% of what number is 10.4
Helga [31]
First, convert "of" to x and put this info into an equation:

Let n represent the unknown number.  

14.4 % x n= 10.4
              n = 10.4 / 14.4%
              n = 72.22222
              n = ~72

Hope this helps!

The graph shows the dilation of ΔABC with the origin as its center. Which rule describes this transformation? A) (x, y) → (2x, 2
podryga [215]

<u><em>Note: Since, you have not added the graph. So, I will give you a general overview of the concept of dilation, the understanding of which will make you clear your concept.</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a dilation is the kind of transformation which produces an image which has the same shape as the original object, but having a different size.

Here are some key factors regarding dilation:

  • Enlargement occurs when a dilation does create a larger image.
  • Reduction occurs when a dilation does create a smaller image.
  • A dilation shrinks or stretches the original object.
  • If the scale factor > 1, the image will be a stretch (enlargement)
  • If the scale factor is between 0 and 1, the image will be shrunk (reduction)
  • If the scale factor = 1, the original object and the image will be congruent

Here is the impact of dilation when (x, y) → (2x, 2y):

  • Dilation with scale factor 2, will have the rule as (x, y) → (2x, 2y). The image will be a stretch (enlargement) as the scale factor > 1.
  • The location of the new coordinates of the image can be obtained by multiplying the coordinates of the original figure by 2.

For example, the coordinates of the image of a point A(4, 8) will be A'(2×4, 2×8) or A'(8, 16) after the dilation of scale 2 at the origin.

Here is the impact of dilation when (x, y) → (0.5x, 0.5y):

  • Dilation with scale factor 0.5, will have the rule as (x, y) → (0.5x, 0.5y). The image will be shrunk (reduction) as the scale factor < 1.
  • The location of the new coordinates of the image can be obtained by multiplying the coordinates of the original figure by 0.5.

For example, the coordinates of the image of a point A(4, 8) will be A'(0.5×4, 0.5×8) or A'(2, 4) after the dilation of scale 0.5 at the origin.
