$6,500, $6,500, and $9,000. Explain the impact of the outlier(s) on the measure of central tendency for this data set.
1.There is a minimal increase to the mean because there is a low outlier and a high outlier in the data set.

2.There is a minimal decrease to the mean because there is a low outlier and a high outlier in the data set.

3.There is a large increase to the mean because of the $9,000 outlier.

4.There is a large decrease to the mean because of the $1,500 outlier.

Answer:

(B)  median because there is an outlier

Step-by-step explanation:

The given data is as follows:

{1, 4, 9, 4, 10, 8, 42}

We can see from the given data that 42 is a data point which differ greatly from the other data points, and from the definition of OUTLIER that is a data point that differ greatly from the trend expressed by the other values in the data set.

Thus, 42 is an outlier.

Now, We have to find the center for the given data set, thus we will use the median as the definition of median states that median is the middle value of the data set.

Therefore, the best measure to find the center of the given data will be median because there is an outlier 42 present in it.

Thus, option B is correct.

What would be the order?
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

<em>17/2, 8.8 with bar on right 8, |-9|, sqrt(82)</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

sqrt(82) = 9.05538...

17/2 = 8.5

8.8 with bar on right 8 = 8.8888888...

|-9| = 9

In order from least to greatest: 17/2, 8.8 with bar on right 8, |-9|, sqrt(82)

Can someone help me with this. Will mark brainliest. Thank you.
Murljashka [212]

Answers:

  1. circle
  2. center
  3. radius
  4. chord
  5. diameter
  6. secant

=======================================

Explanations:

  1. Consider a campfire and people surrounding it to warm up. The fire itself is the center of the circle, and the people around it are points on the circle's edge. Assume that each person is the same distance away from the fire. Refer to the diagram below.
  2. We always refer to the circle name by the center point. Think of it being like at the center of the universe, or you could think how the sun is at the center of the solar system. While technically the planets orbit in ellipses and not perfect circles, this idea still could be useful to help remember the naming convention.
  3. If we go back to the example in part 1, the radius is the distance from the campfire to any given person. The radius is half the diameter.
  4. This is not to be confused with the spelling "cord" which refers to wiring used in electronics, or in fabric fibers. If we connected any two campers with a segment, then we formed a chord. Refer back to part 1 above. Any diameter is a chord, but not the other way around.
  5. The diameter is a special type of chord that goes through the center. Note the endpoints of the diameter are on the circle's edge.
  6. A secant line is basically a chord but we've extended both endpoints off infinitely in both directions. A secant cuts the circle at 2 different points. In contrast, a tangent line touches the circle at exactly one point only.
