Answer:

A.The mean would increase.

Step-by-step explanation:

Outliers are numerical values in a data set that are very different from the other values. These values are either too large or too small compared to the others.

Presence of outliers effect the measures of central tendency.

The measures of central tendency are mean, median and mode.

The mean of a data set is a a single numerical value that describes the data set. The median is a numerical values that is the mid-value of the data set. The mode of a data set is the value with the highest frequency.

Effect of outliers on mean, median and mode:

  • Mean: If the outlier is a very large value then the mean of the data increases and if it is a small value then the mean decreases.
  • Median: The presence of outliers in a data set has a very mild effect on the median of the data.
  • Mode: The presence of outliers does not have any effect on the mode.

The mean of the test scores without the outlier is:

   \bar{x}=\frac{Total of the observations-Outlier value}{n-1} \\=\frac{(86*16)-72}{15} \\=\frac{1304}{15}\\ =86.9333

*Here <em>n</em> is the number of observations.

So, with the outlier the mean is 86 and without the outlier the mean is 86.9333.

The mean increased.

Since the median cannot be computed without the actual data, no conclusion can be drawn about the median.

Conclusion:

After removing the outlier value of 72 the mean of the test scores increased from 86 to 86.9333.

Thus, the the truer statement will be that when the outlier is removed the mean of the data set increases.

Universal Pet house sells vinyl doghouse and treated lumber doghouses. It takes the company 5 hours to build a vinyl doghouses a
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

The system of equations is :

Equation 1- 5x+2y=50

Equation 2- x+2y=30

Number of vinyl doghouse = 5

Number of treated lumber doghouse =12.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of vinyl doghouses

y be the number of treated lumber doghouses

→If it takes the company 5 hours to build a vinyl doghouses and 2 hours to build a treated lumber doghouse. The company dedicates 50 hours every week towards assembling and painting doghouses.

Equation 1- 5x+2y=50

→It takes an additional hour to paint each vinyl doghouse and an additional 2 hours to assemble each treated lumber doghouse. The company dedicates 30 hours every week towards assembling and paining dog houses.

Equation 2- x+2y=30

→When we solve these equation we get the number of  vinyl doghouse and treated lumber doghouse.

Subtract equation 2 from equation 1

5x+2y-x-2y=50-30

4x=20

x=\frac{20}{4}

x=5

Put value of x in equation 2

x+2y=30

5+2y=30

2y=25

y=\frac{25}{2}

y=12.5

Therefore, number of vinyl doghouse = 5, number of treated lumber doghouse =12.5

IF YOU HELP ME ILL WILL GIVE YOU BRAINLIST AND 50 PONITS HELP ME PLZZZZZ

I think the answer is A because the data is skewed to the right 
The median (middle) isn't 10, it's 8 
The interquartile range (IQR) is 7 not 6 because you have to subtract the first and third quartile 13 - 6 = 7 not 6

Hope this helps! ;)
