It's hard to tell where one set ends and the next starts. I think it's
A. 25, 36, 44, 51, 62, 77
B. 3, 3, 3, 7, 9, 9, 10, 14
C. 8, 17, 18, 20, 20, 21, 23, 26, 31, 39
D. 63, 65, 66, 69, 71, 78, 80, 81, 82, 82
Let's go through them.
A. 25, 36, 44, 51, 62, 77
That looks OK, standard deviation around 20, mean around 50, points with 2 standard deviations of the mean.
B. 3, 3, 3, 7, 9, 9, 10, 14
Average around 7, sigma around 4, within 2 sigma, seems ok.
C. 8, 17, 18, 20, 20, 21, 23, 26, 31, 39
Average around 20, sigma around 8, that 39 is hanging out there past two sigma. Let's reserve judgement and compare to the next one.
D. 63, 65, 66, 69, 71, 78, 80, 81, 82, 82
Average around 74, sigma 8, seems very tight.
I guess we conclude C has the outlier 39. That one doesn't seem like much of an outlier to me; I was looking for a lone point hanging out at five or six sigma.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given equation</u>
<u>Answer choices</u>
A. The equation represents a proportional relationship.
- TRUE, it is in the form of y = kx
B. The unit rate of change of y with respect to x is 8.5
- TRUE, y = mx + b, the slope m = 8.5 is the rate of change
C. The slope of the line is 2/17
D. A change of 17 units in x results in a change of 2 units in y.
- False, a change of x = 17 results in 17*8.5 = 144.5 units in y
E. A change of 4 units in x results in a change of 34 units in y.
