To find how the mean is affected by an outlier, we can find the means for both of the data sets. We can find a mean by adding all of the quantities together and then dividing by how many there are. But, instead since we see that the outlier is much larger, we know that it would make the data set's mean much larger, since by adding a number that is much greater than the rest, the dividing will create an even larger number.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Set up the equation:
Since C(t) gives the number of cars purchased in the t-th year after 1998, then make the number of cars equal to 15 000 and solve for t - the year:
20t^2 = 15000
t^2 = 750
t = 
The year will be simply 1998 + 5 \sqrt{30}
216 sequences are possible
