Answer:

This image is showig how to divide a given line segment into a number of equal parts by using a compass and  ruler. First, draw the line AB. Secondly, draw a line above and divide into 5 equal distances to make a line AC. Third, using a compass by getting the distance of point C and B to be equal in the distance of point A and D, also getting the distance of point C to A to be equal to point B and D, then to make the Line DB. Finally divide into 5 equal parts by compass.

I Need Help With Statistics
Ilya [14]

Answer: Choice A) mean, there are no outliers

Have a look at the image attached below. I made two dotplots for the data points. The blue points represent bakery A. The red points represent bakery B. For any bakery, the points are fairly close together. There is no point that is off on its own. So there are no outliers, making the mean a good choice for the center. If there were outliers, then the median is a better choice. The mean is greatly affected by outliers, while the median is not.
