When we say a statistic is resistant, we mean the extreme values do not affect the statistic to a large extent or to an extent which makes a major difference. Mean and median are example of such statistics. By changing the extreme values we do not see a substantial difference in the value of mean and median for the data set.

Consider a sample: 1,2,3,4,4,5,6,7,8
The median for this data set is 4.
If we change the extreme values to get this sample:  -5,2,3,4,4,5,6,7,100
The median will still be the same i.e. 4. This is what is meant by a resistant statistic.

So option a is the correct ans.

I really don't understand this I need help

In looking at it I would guess it is asking which of the points is on the line? To answer that you would have to take each point an plug it into the equation and see if it is true.

3x - 7 = y

A(9,20)  
3(9) - 7 = 20
27 - 7 = 20
20 = 20 True - this point is on the line

B(5,0)
3(5) - 7 = 0
15 - 7 = 0
8 = 0 False - this point is not on the line

C(3,2)
3(3) - 7 = 2
9 - 7 = 2
2 = 2  True - this point is on the line

I hope this helps

Help me please !!!!!!!!

y=5/3x

this is because f(x)=x is one of (identity function) the 12 basic functions and when you multiply it it will shift it on the y axis

If you were to do y=x+5/3 it would make a horizontal shift to the left 5/3

So the unit your on is mostly about knowing the number located in the function that will make the graph shift different ways
