HELP A.S.A.P!!!! The data to represent average test scores for a class of 16 students includes an outlier value of 78. If the ou

tlier is included, then the mean is 84. Which statement is always true about the new data when the outlier is removed?
The mean would decrease.
The mean would increase.
The median would decrease.
The median would increase.

When the outlier is removed The mean would increase.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Outliers are the value that lies outside the set of data. i.e. the data doesn't fit in the group.

Removing outliers can affect mean more than median. Because outlier removal sometimes affect the median but in a small percentage or sometimes it will remain the same.

Let us prove, consider 16 values one with 78 and other 15 with values nearly 85, 84 that will give the mean value as 84.

78, 84, 82, 86, 84, 85, 83, 86, 82, 85, 84, 83, 86, 85, 86, 85.

Mean =\frac{Sum of the values}{Number of values}.

Mean =\frac{78+84+82+86+84+85+83+86+82+85+84+83+86+85+86+85}{16}.

Mean =\frac{1344}{16}.

Mean = 84.

Remove 78 from the data set then the data set is 84, 82, 86, 84, 85, 83, 86, 82, 85, 84, 83, 86, 85, 86, 85 and number of data is reduced to 15.

Mean =\frac{84+82+86+84+85+83+86+82+85+84+83+86+85+86+85}{15}.

Mean =\frac{1266}{15}.

Mean = 84.4.

The mean is increased.

To test the impact performance of a 10 cm thick gymnastics mat, a 20 kg cylindrical
denis23 [38]

Answer:

A)196J

B)-208J

C)3467J

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a 20 kg cylindrical  mass is dropped onto the mat from a height of 1 m above the mat. During the impact,  the cylinder’s vertical velocity reaches zero at the instant the mat has compressed to  only 4 cm thick.

So, The Mat gets compressed by : 10cm - 4 cm = 6 cm=0.06 m

a)

Using Conservations of energy

Potential energy at the top = Kinetic energy at the point before touching the surface

Kinetic energy = mgh= 20 \times 9.8 \times 1 = 196 J

b)

Work done  by the mat do to stop the fall of the cylinder =-mg(h+0.06)=-20 \times 9.8(1+0.06)=-208 J

C)

Work done=\text{Average force} \times \text{ Compression of mat}

208=F \times 0.06

F=3467J

write a step by step proof. the givens are c is the midpoint of segment AB, and point c measures 10cm. prove AC=5cm plz help wil
Sliva [168]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

GIRL! You should add diagrams to these types of questions. It would really help

That 10cm does not mean point C is 10cm. It means the line AB is 10 cm in total.

And since point C is the midpoint, which means that point C cuts the line AB in half, that makes AC = 5cm

The temperature rose by 11 degrees Fahrenheit today. Write a signed number to represent this temperature change
Anestetic [448]
The rise in temperature by 11 degrees Fahrenheit can be represented by the temperature change, ΔT = +11 °F. The temperature change is positive because the temperature increased as stated in the question. Moreover, the formula for temperature change is: ΔT = T_final - T_initial. This means that for this case, the final temperature is higher than the initial temperature.
