The mean increases when the outlier is removed
16.5 degrees below the starting temp, whatever that is. If its 0, then -16.5 degrees.
The first equation would be (.5)5-11=-8.5, because the metal has been cooling for 5 hours.
The device that 'aids' in the cooling would be -5-3=-8, because it is a separate variable that cools the metal, so the amount the device cools is independent of the natural cooling amount, and the equation is independent of the natural cooling equation.
You then add -8.5 and -8, because the device has lowered 8.5 degrees and 8 degrees. This equals -16.5 degrees, or a decrease of 16.5 degrees.

Answer:
The Average Temperature for the week is -1°C
Step-by-step explanation:
First to find the average, you have to combine all the numbers
-3-4+0-2+0+3-1 = -7
Then you have to divide the total, with the number of numbers used to combine to make the total
-7 ÷ 7 = -1
The average temperature is -1°C
