Answer:

If the mean, including the outlier is 84 and the outlier is below the mean, then if the outlier is removed then the median could increase, it definitely wouldn't decrease, but the new mean would definitely increase.

Step-by-step explanation:

16 x 84 = 1344

if you take out the outlier 1344 - 78 = 1266

1266/15 = 84.4 new mean when outlier is removed.

The sum of the first 150 negative integers is represented using the expression
Leona [35]

Answer:

\large\boxed{-11,325}

Step-by-step explanation:

First simplify:

-1-(n-1)=-1-n-(-1)=-1-n+1=-n

Therefore we have:

\sum\limits_{n=1}^{150}[-1-(n-1)]=\sum\limits_{n=1}^{150}(-n)=(-1)+(-2)+(-3)+...+(-150)\\\\-1,\ -2,\ -3,\ -4,\ ...,\ -150-\text{it's the arithmetic sequence}\\\text{with the common difference d = -1.}\\\\\text{The formula of a sum of terms of an arithmetic sequence:}\\\\S_n=\dfrac{a_1+a_n}{2}\cdot n\\\\\text{Substitute}\ n=150,\ a_1=-1,\ a_n=-150:\\\\S_{150}=\dfrac{-1+(-150)}{2}\cdot150=(-151)(75)=-11,325

Ruiz needs to buy a countertop for a kitchen. He calculated the area to be 16 square feet. The actual area is 15.4 square feet.
igomit [66]
Percentage error =\frac{error}{actual measurement}  \times 100
Here error = 16 - 15.4 = 0.6
Therefore, percentage error =\frac{0.6}{15.4}  \times 100=0.039 \times 100
=3.9%
