What we should do is create a set of 15 data.

To comply with the mean and median 59, what we will do is make our center point 59, we will add 7 values ​​backwards and 7 values ​​forward, always the same value adding in the case forward or subtracting in the case of backwards the same number so that the mean is not affected

So:

We will add 2.5 in the same proportion, we start with the forward ones:

59 + 2.5 * 1 = 61.5

59 + 2.5 * 2 = 64

59 + 2.5 * 3 = 66.5

59 + 2.5 * 4 = 69

59 + 2.5 * 5 = 71.5

59 + 2.5 * 6 = 74

59 + 2.5 * 7 = 76.5

Backward:

59 - 2.5 * 7 = 41.5

59 - 2.5 * 6 = 44

59 - 2.5 * 5 = 46.5

59 - 2.5 * 4 = 49

59 - 2.5 * 3 = 51.5

59 - 2.5 * 2 = 254

59 - 2.5 * 1 = 56.5

Therefore, the entire data set would be:

41.5, 44, 46.5, 49, 51.5, 54, 56.5, 59, 61.5, 64, 66.5, 69, 71.5, 74, 76.5

We guarantee the mean and median 59.

The standard deviation is equal to 10.8

Now if we change the first value of 41.5 by 1000, we will see what happens:

New dataset:

1000, 44, 46.5, 49, 51.5, 54, 56.5, 59, 61.5, 64, 66.5, 69, 71.5, 74, 76.5

The mean changes to 122.9

And the standard deviation to 234.62

In other words, there is a significant increase in the mean, but in the standard deviation the growth is abysmal.

I attach an excel to check all this data.

2 - ( - 8 ) + ( - 3 ) =
solmaris [256]
Hey!

First, let's write the problem.
2-\left(-8\right)+\left(-3\right)
We know that, -\left(-8\right)=+8, so let's apply that
=2+8+\left(-3\right)
We have to add, 2+8=10
=10+\left(-3\right)
We know that +\left(-3\right)=-3, so let's apply that.
=10-3
Subtract. 10-3=7
=7

Our final answer would be 7!

Thanks!

There are 21 more days before the first big winter storm and the squirrel collects 12 acorns a day, how far away from her origin
alexandr402 [8]
She has 445 left after the bear ate some so
21 × 12 = 252
252 + 445 = 697 acorns

she should maybe bother the bear so he can't hibernate, or steal his food so he knows what it's like
