Hello!

An outlier can cause the mean to be misleading. If you have an outlier when finding the median or IQR, it will not throw off the data by much. But adding a very large or small number to the mean, and dividing it by an extra number, it will throw the number off by a large amount.

I hope this helps!

Amanda [17]

Well, negatives are less than zero, and the greater the number the less it is, or in this case colder, so we know that the first two are -19, and -10, then comes 0, and increases from there. So, the answer would be B. (-19, -10, 0, 15, 28)

Answer :

Points at (1, 3) and (3, 3) and (2, 1)

Explanation:

The original graph (dashed) is an absolute value function meaning f(x) = |x|

<u>Given:</u> y = 2f(x - 2) + 1

f(x - 2) means you plug in x - 2 for x in f(x) function

the new graph equation is: y = 2|x - 2| + 1

The graph will shift up 1 because +1
The graph will shift right because -2
The graph has a scale factor of 2
The graph is V shaped because it is an absolute value graph
