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.

What is the area of the model in the problem?

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

$A=x^2+12x+27\ units^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of the model is equal to the area of a rectangle

The area of a rectangle is equal to

$A=LW$

we have

$L=x+9\ units$

$W=x+3\ units$

substitute

$A=(x+9)(x+3)$

Apply distributive property

$A=x^2+3x+9x+27$

Combine like terms

$A=x^2+12x+27\ units^2$

Which of these statements best describes the relation shown in Item 1?

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

It is a many-to-one relation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for relation

Required

What type of function is it?

The relation can be represented as:

$\left[\begin{array}{c}x\\ \\-5\\-2\\1\\5\end{array}\right]$ $\left[\begin{array}{c}y\\ \\10\\11\\4\\10\end{array}\right]$

Where

$x = domain$ and $y = range$

Notice that the range has an occurrence of 10 (twice)

i.e.

$(x_1,y_1) = (-5,10)$ and $(x_2,y_2) = (5,10)$

In function and relations, when two different values in the domain point to the same value in the range implies that, <em>the relation is many to one.</em>
