Um. i’m pretty sure it’s just 30 feet
Answer:
No, the Roger’s claim is not correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that Roger claims that the two statistics most likely to change greatly when an outlier is added to a small data set are the mean and the median.
This statement by Roger is incorrect because the median is unaffected by the outlier value and only the mean value gets affected by the outlier value.
As the median represents the middlemost value of our dataset, so any value which is an outlier will be either at the start or at the end will not the median value. So, the median will not likely change when an outlier is added to a small data set.
Now, the mean is the average of all the data set values, that is the sum of all the observations divided by the number of observations. The mean will get affected by the outlier value because it take into account each and every value of the data set.
Hence, the mean will likely to change greatly when an outlier is added to a small data set.
Hey there!
To start, the mean of the answer is also known as the average value of a set of numbers. This is calculated by dividing the sum of the set by the total amount of numbers.
In this case the sum of all the numbers is 13 + 6 + 8 + 6 + 15 which is equal to 48.
Now, divide 48 by the total number of numbers in the set: 48/5 = 9.6
Your final answer should be 9.6, or you can leave it in fraction form as 48/5.
Hope this helps!
