Answer:

a. Mean doesn't change.

b. Median doesn't change.

c. Mode can change.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the data set with 10 observations

{2,6,4,3,2,6,4,9,4,7}.

Arranging data set in ascending order

{2,2,3,4,4,4,6,6,7,9}

mean=2+2+3+4+4+4+6+6+7+9/10=4.7

median

n/2=10/2=5 is an integer so,

median= average of n/2 and n/2 +1

median= (5th value+6th value)/2

median=(4+4)/2=8/2=4

Mode

The most repeated value is 4. So, mode is 4 for assumed data.

Increasing highest value by 10 and decreasing lowest value by 10

{-8,2,3,4,4,4,6,6,7,19}

a.

mean=-8+2+3+4+4+4+6+6+7+19/10=4.7

Mean doesn't change

b.

median

n/2=10/2=5 is an integer so,

median= average of n/2 and n/2 +1

median= (5th value+6th value)/2

median=(4+4)/2=8/2=4

Median doesn't change

c.

Most occurring value is still 4. But mode can change if the value the highest value becomes most concurring value.

Mean doesn't change

b.

median

n/2=10/2=5 is an integer so,

median= average of n/2 and n/2 +1

median= (5th value+6th value)/2

median=(4+4)/2=8/2=4

Median doesn't change

If the point (b,15) lies on the straight line with equation Y=5x fonde the value of b ?
Andrej [43]

Answer:

b = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute the y- coordinate 15 into the equation , that is

15 = 5x ( divide both sides by 5 )

3 = x

This is the x- coordinate of the point , so b = 3
