Answer:

False.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a statement. We are asked to determine whether our given statement is true or false.

Statement:

The mean of a set is not affected by outliers.

We know that mean is the average of all the data points of a data set.

When our data set will have a large value data point, the mean will be above the center of data set.

When our data set will have a small value data point, the mean will be below the center of data set.

Therefore, the mean of a a set is always affected by outliers and our given statement is false.

Can someone help me? thanks!

So you know that 1 cubic foot is equal to 80 pounds. So, the first point would be (1,80).
You can find the other points by multiply 80 by a number, and when I did that, I got (2,160) and (3,240) too.

I hope this helps :)
