It all depends. You've given us an incredibly vague question.

The outlier could be a number that's low or quite high. Also, outliers
shouldn't really contribute towards the value of the mean, median or 
range related to a group of data.

They are called outliers because they are bizarre results or numbers
and should be detached from groups of data. Outliers by definition
are abnormalities or anomalies.

I'd say outliers don't really change anything, unless you actually want
to give them credibility or weight.

Large outliers can inflate the value of means, medians and ranges.

Small outliers will invariably deflate the value of means and medians.

Use the equation y=1/3x-2<br> Draw a graph of the line, and identify the slope and Y intercept
xz_007 [3.2K]
I can't graph the equation for you, but I can tell you where the points will be. The y-intercept is easy; 1/3×0=0 and 0-2= -2. One of your points (the y-intercept) should be at (0,-2). To find another point is slightly trickier, but all you have to do here is find a multiple of three. For the simplest one, go to 3 on the x-axis. Then, apply the equation, y=1/3x-2. Your second point should lay at (3,-1). Then, just connect those two points and extend them to show that the line is continuous. Hope I could help!
