Do outliers affect box plots. If so how?

Mathematics
1 answer:
vfiekz [6]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

An outlier can cause the "whiskers" of the box plot to be longer but it shouldn't affect the actual box with your Q1, median, and Q3 data

Find the​ (a) mean,​ (b) median,​ (c) mode, and​ (d) midrange for the data and then​ (e) answer the given question. Listed below
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

a) \bar X = 369.62

b) Median=175

c) Mode =450

With a frequency of 4

d) MidR= \frac{Max +Min}{2}= \frac{49+3000}{2}= 1524.5

<u>e)</u>s = 621.76

And we can find the limits without any outliers using two deviations from the mean and we got:

\bar X+2\sigma = 369.62 +2*621.76 = 1361

And for this case we have two values above the upper limit so then we can conclude that 1500 and 3000 are potential outliers for this case

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following data set given:

49 70 70 70 75 75 85 95 100 125 150 150 175 184 225 225 275 350 400 450 450 450 450 1500 3000

Part a

The mean can be calculated with this formula:

\bar X = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{n}

Replacing we got:

\bar X = 369.62

Part b

Since the sample size is n =25 we can calculate the median from the dataset ordered on increasing way. And for this case the median would be the value in the 13th position and we got:

Median=175

Part c

The mode is the most repeated value in the sample and for this case is:

Mode =450

With a frequency of 4

Part d

The midrange for this case is defined as:

MidR= \frac{Max +Min}{2}= \frac{49+3000}{2}= 1524.5

Part e

For this case we can calculate the deviation given by:

s =\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i -\bar X)^2}{n-1}}

And replacing we got:

s = 621.76

And we can find the limits without any outliers using two deviations from the mean and we got:

\bar X+2\sigma = 369.62 +2*621.76 = 1361

And for this case we have two values above the upper limit so then we can conclude that 1500 and 3000 are potential outliers for this case

A party rental company has chairs and tables for rent. The total cost to rent 5 chairs and
Alona [7]

Answer:

1 Chair= $1.25     1 table= $8.25

Step-by-step explanation:

5c+3t=31

2c+6t= 52

-2(5c+3t=31)

-10c-6t=-62

+

2c+6t=52

= -8c=-10

/-8      /-8

c= 1.25 or 1 1/4

2c+6t=52

2(1.25)+6t=52

2.5+6t=52

-2.5        -2.5

6t= 49.5

/6      /6

t= 8 1/4
