Answer 1

This statement in the article is wrong because $2.69 is not the mean price ($2.81)

How to determine what is wrong with the data?

The prices from 5 gas stations surveyed are given as:

$2.79, $2.99, $2.69, $2.89, and $2.69.

There are no outliers in the dataset

So, the dataset can be summarized by the mean

The mean is

Mean = Sum/Count

So, we have

Mean = ($2.79+ $2.99+ $2.69+ $2.89+$2.69)/5

Evaluate

Mean = 2.81

The article quoted $2.69 as the typical price

This statement in the article is wrong because $2.69 is not the mean price ($2.81)
