If you begin with the basic equation of a vertical parabola: y-k=a(x-h)^2, where (h,k) is the vertex, then that equation, when the vertex is (-3,-2), is
y + 2 = a (x + 3)^2. If we solve this for y, we get
y = a(x+3)^2 - 2. Thus, eliminate answers A and D. That leaves B, since B correctly shows (x+3)^2.
15+5•y/2
15+5•4 / 2
15+20 / 2
15+10

Answer:
See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
An outlier can affect the mean by a lot. For example, if my neighbor moves out and Bill Gates moves in (he would be a <u>super</u> outlier!), the mean annual income would increase enormously.
The median, on the other hand, would not change at all. The income in the middle is still the income in the middle; Gates' income would not budge the median.
