The outlier is 20

it affect the mean because

1)32 +40+34+ 31 +20+ 36 +40+31=264

2) 264 divided by 8= 33

so it gives you an odd number

Answer:

The percentage of workers not wearing the helmets is 5.3 %.

Step-by-step explanation:

A safety committee randomly examined 900 construction workers during their work, and found that 48 workers were not wearing helmets. Estimate the percentage of workers who do not wear protective masks during their working time with 98% confidence

total workers = 900

Not wearing helmet = 48

Percentage which are not wearing the helmets

= $\frac{48}{900}\times 100 = 5.3 %$ %

Drag and drop the constant of proportionality into the box to match the table. If the table is not proportional, drag and drop "

Nikitich [7]

The table is proportional and the constant of proportionality is 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportional relationships are relationships between two variables

where their ratios are equivalent

One variable is always a constant value times the other
The relation between the two variables represented graphically by a line passes through the origin point

The table:

→ x : 0 : 2 : 4 : 6

→ y : 0 : 3 : 6 : 9

To prove that y ∝ x find the ratio between each value of y with corresponding value of x

∵ $\frac{3}{2}=1.5$
