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.
Answer:
63 Lights
Step-by-step explanation:
First you can convert the feet to inches:
The length of decorative lights is 264 inches
You can then subtract 16 from 264
264 - 16 = 248
248/4 = 62
Adding one extra light at the end of the string of decorative lights you can get 63 lights on the string
Answer: c.) Sales tax varies by state, so you can travel to a state with a lower tax rate and make your purchase there.
Step-by-step explanation:
Sales tax rates vary significantly from state to state, so you can save money if you know what state has a lower sales tax rate, so you can travel to that state and make your purchase there.
There is a list of states with lower sales tax rates:
1. Alaska 1.43% Sales tax rates
2. Hawaii 4.41% Sales tax rates
3. Wyoming 5.36% Sales tax rates
4. Wisconsin 5.44% Sales tax rates
5. Maine 5.50% Sales tax rates
6. Virginia 5.65% Sales tax rates

To get -4 from 1, we must either subtract 5 from 1 or mult. 1 by -4. Unfortunately subtracting 5 from -4 does not result in 9, and mult -4 by -4 does not result in -16. So neither "works" in predicting the next term.
Can you think of any other experiments to do that would help you discover the pattern 1, -4, 9, -16?
