Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The variable of interest is

X: mark obtained in an aptitude test by a candidate.

This variable has a mean μ= 128.5 and standard deviation σ= 8.2

You have the data of three scores extracted from the pool of aptitude tests taken.

148, 102, 152

An outlier is an observation that is significantly distant from the rest of the data set. They usually represent experimental errors (such as a measurement) or atypical observations. Some statistical measurements, such as the sample mean, are severely affected by this type of values and their presence tends to cause misleading results on a statistical analysis.  

Using the mean and the standard deviation, an outlier is any value that is three standard deviations away from the mean: μ±3σ

Using the population values you can calculate the limits that classify an observed value as outlier:

μ±3σ

128.5±3*8.2

(103.9; 153.1)

This means that any value below 103.9 and above 153.1 can be considered an outlier.

For this example, there is only one outlier, that this the extracted score 102

I hope this helps!

Lieutenant James made an average of 3 arrests per week for 4 weeks. How many arrests does she need to make in the fifth week to
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

We want the average arrests to be 4. It can be done by calculating the average between the average arrests and arrests during the 5th week, so we get:

Avg(1,2,3,4,5) = (Avg(1,2,3,4) + A(5)) / 2

Where Avg(x) is the average of arrests in given weeks, and A(x) is the number of arrests in a given week.

Solving for A(5) => A(5) = 2*Avg(1,2,3,4,5) - Avg(1,2,3,4) = 2 * 4 - 3 = 8-3 = 5
