Mathematics

salantis [7]4 years ago

Answer with explanation:

Mean of a data set is defined as sum of all the observation divided by total number of observation.

For, example

Consider the Data set,the cost of five pens,={3,5,8,10,14}

Mean

      =\frac{3+5+8+10+14}{5}\\\\=\frac{40}{5}\\\\=8

Now, Two pens having cost $ 47 and $ 53 is included in the Data set

New data set of Seven pens,={3,5,8,10,14,47,53}

   Mean

      =\frac{3+5+8+10+14+47+53}{7}\\\\=\frac{140}{7}\\\\=20

So, you can see there is variation or Difference between two means.

We can conclude from above two results ,that mean is affected by outlier.

Answer:

it measures spread around the mean. Because of its close links with the mean, standard deviation can be greatly affected if the mean gives a poor measure of central tendency. Standard deviation is also influenced by outliers one value could contribute largely to the results of the standard deviation.

The point (6, 6) is on the graph y = f(x) . Find the corresponding coordinates of this point on the graph y = 4f[1/3x +9] -7
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

Correct answer is:

<em>a. (-9,17)</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a point (6, 6) lies on the graph of y =f(x).

Putting the values from the given point:

6 =f(6)

That means we are given that f(6) =6 ..... (1)

And we have to find the corresponding coordinates of this point on the graph of y = 4f[\frac{1}3x +9] -7

From equation (1), we know the value of f(6).

so, let us convert f[\frac{1}3x +9] to a form such that it becomes equal to f(6)

\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{3}x +9 =6\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{3}x=-3\\\Rightarrow x = -9

So, let us put x = -9 in the given function:

4f[\frac{1}3\times (-9) +9] -7\\\Rightarrow 4f[-3 +9] -7\\\Rightarrow 4f(6) -7

Now, using equation <em>(1)</em>, putting f(6)=6

\Rightarrow 4\times 6 -7\\\Rightarrow 24-7 \\\Rightarrow y = 17

Therefore, the point the corresponding point is:

<em>a. (-9,17)</em>
