Answer:

In statistics, an outlier is a data point that differs significantly from other observations.

Step-by-step explanation:

An outlier may be due to variability in the measurement or it may indicate experimental error; the latter are sometimes excluded from the data set. An outlier can cause serious problems in statistical analyses.

The coordinates of the top of a tree are (-3,8), and an acorn is attached to the tree at (-1,5). If we know that the acorn lies

Charra [1.4K]

Let's say that the coordinates of the squirrel are: (x, y)

Since the coordinates of the acorn is halfway, between the tree and the squirrel, that means the acorn is the midpoint.

To work out the midpoint you do:

(sum of x-coordinates) divided by 2, (sum of y coordinates) divided by 2.

We can use this to form an equation .

So the sum of the x coordinates of the tree and the squirrel = -1 :

x-coordinates of the squirrel:

$\frac{-3+x}{2}=-1$ <em>(now solve for x)</em>

$-3+x = -2$

$x=1$

y-coordinates:

$\frac{8+y}{2}=5$ <em>(now solve for y)</em>

$8+y=10$

$y = 2$

So the coordinates of the squirrel are: (1, 2)

Nice and simple. PEMDAS. Parentheses, exponents, multiple, division, addiction, subtraction.

The first thing you do is solve the numbers in the parenthesis, which would turn to

(312) + (714) = 1026
