Required information Section 01.02 Exercise 14 - Effects of changing data values on mean, median, and standard deviation There a

re 14 employees in a particular division of a company. Their salaries have a mean of $70,000, a median of $55,000, and a standard deviation of $20,000. The largest number on the list is $100,000. By accident, this number is changed to $1,000,000.

Answer:

  • Mean will Increase .
  • Median remains unchanged.
  • Standard deviation will increase.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that there are 14 employees in a particular division of a company and their salaries have a mean of $70,000, a median of $55,000, and a standard deviation of $20,000.

And also the largest number on the list is $100,000 but By accident, this number is changed to $1,000,000.

Now we have to analyse the Effect of this change in data values on mean, median, and standard deviation.

  • Mean will get affected because $1,000,000 is a very huge value as compared to $100,000 and is considered to be an outlier and we know that mean is affected by outliers as mean will change to $134285.7143 after replacing $100,000 with $1,000,000 .
  • Median will not get affected as median the middle most value in the data set and since $1,000,000 is considered to be an outlier so median remain unchanged at $55,000 .
  • Standard Deviation will also get affected as due to outlier value in the data set the numerator value will increase very much and due to which standard deviation will also increase.

For the equation 2n - 3 = 7, what is the coefficient of the variable
scoray [572]

Answer:z

Then variable is n

Variable is an alphabet that depend on number. Then the variable there is n

And the coefficient of the variable is 2

The coefficient is the number behind a variable

And the value of the variable is

2n-3=7

Add 3 to both sides

2n-3+3=7+3

2n=10

Divide both side by 2

2n/2=10/2

n=5

For the function f(x) = 7/2x-16, what is the difference quotient for all nonzero values of h?
sergey [27]

Answer:

\frac{f(x + h) - f(x)}{ h} = \frac{7}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = \frac{7}{2}x - 16

Required

The difference quotient for h

The difference quotient is calculated as:

\frac{f(x + h) - f(x)}{ h}

Calculate f(x + h)

f(x) = \frac{7}{2}x - 16

f(x+h) = \frac{7}{2}(x+h) - 16

f(x+h) = \frac{7}{2}x+ \frac{7}{2}h- 16

The numerator of \frac{f(x + h) - f(x)}{ h} is:

f(x + h) - f(x) =  \frac{7}{2}x+ \frac{7}{2}h- 16 -(\frac{7}{2}x - 16)

f(x + h) - f(x) =  \frac{7}{2}x+ \frac{7}{2}h- 16 -\frac{7}{2}x + 16

Collect like terms

f(x + h) - f(x) =  \frac{7}{2}x  -\frac{7}{2}x + \frac{7}{2}h- 16 + 16

f(x + h) - f(x) = \frac{7}{2}h

So, we have:

\frac{f(x + h) - f(x)}{ h} = \frac{7}{2}h \div h

Rewrite as:

\frac{f(x + h) - f(x)}{ h} = \frac{7}{2}h * \frac{1}{h}

\frac{f(x + h) - f(x)}{ h} = \frac{7}{2}
