Answer:
B)
Step-by-step explanation:
In statistics, an outlier is a data point that differs significantly from other observations.
This can happen because of different reasons: it may be due to variability in the measurement or it may indicate an actual experimental error. If it is an actual experimental error then it can create problems when doing the statistical analysis.
A) We can say that this is true, the outliers are observed values far from the other data, however we can make a much deeper analysis of this.
B) This is the right answer, since we don't know what is really causing the outlier, we need to take a closer look to see if they are just mistakes (and therefore be removed). If they are not mistakes we need to do the analysis with and without them to reach correct conclusions.
C) this is wrong because although the part of the histogram is true. It is not true that they should be ignored.
d) The outliers differ significantly from the other data but this doesn't make them the minimum and maximum values in a data set and therefore they should not be treated as such.
Therefore, the correct answer is B)
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
The wording in the problem statement is ...
... "less than 3 years"
... "at least 3. but less than 6 years"
so we expect the inequality symbols to look like ...
... 0 ≤ x < 3
... 3 ≤ x < 6
These match <em>the second piecewise function</em>.
When you are checking your answers, your formula should read out as 9(2.222) - 8 = 12, which is simply filing in the x value that you calculated (it comes out to 11.998 which is correct). You wrote it out as 9(2.22) - 8 = -6, which is why your checking process was incorrect
247.62 x 0.15 = 37.143
round to $37.14
I hope that helped :)
