Yes it is :)
If there is an outlier on the lower end of the graph the mean will go down. If there is an outlier at the higher end of the graph the mean will go up.
Answer:
fits under statistics category (also probability or math :\)
Tyler finished more of the art project.
Carlos finished 1/3
In terms of percentage 1/3 *100% = 33.3%
Tyler finished 1/2
In terms of percentage 1/2 *100% = 50%
50% > 33.3%
50% is greater than 33.3%
Let n = the unknown number
"The product of a number and 4" = 4 * n = 4n
"increased by 16" = + 16
Set it all equal to - 2.
4n + 16 = - 2
Subtract 16 from both sides to get constants on one side and variables on the other.
4n = - 2 - 16
Combine like terms:
4n = - 18
Divide both sides by 4 to isolate variable n.
n = - 18 / 4
= - 4 and 2/4 = - 4 and 1/2
