find y=mx+b for line parallel to AB.
The line that is parallel will have the same slope as line AB:
the slope of line AB is
m=(8-3)/(-10-2)
=5/-12
=-5/12
Since the line going through X is parallel the vertical distance of the new line to AB is the same for all values of the domain(x-axis).
at x=-5 the point X has the y value of 10 which is 4 more than the y value for AB based on the graph.
To find the intercept b of the line going through X that is parallel to AB we just add 4 to the intercept of AB, which is 4 so
4+4=8
138 is the outlier since it is more than 1.5 * IQR past the third quartile of the data set.
With this upper outlier, the mean will be significantly higher. Without it, it will lower back down, so B is your answer
$5125.78. For simple questions like this you can search them on google and find answers very quickly so you dont waste points btw.
Commutative property of multiplication is two numbers being multiplied either way,example 1x2 = 2x1.
