Answer:

speed of the boat = 100 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = speed of the boat

upstream speed = x - 4

downstream speed = x + 4

time = 24/(x - 4) = 26/(x + 4)

Cross multiply:

24(x + 4) = 26(x - 4)

24x + 96 = 26x - 104

104 + 96 = 26x - 24x

200 = 2x

x = 100 mph

When the outliers are removed, how does the mean change?
jok3333 [9.3K]
<span>In statistics, an outlier is an observation point that is distant from other observations.

Given the points
15, 23, 24, 26, 27 and 35

Notice, that the points 15 and 35 are distance from the other points and hence are outliers.

The mean of the observations including the outliers is given by
\frac{15+23+24+26+27+35}{6} = \frac{150}{6} =25

The mean of the observations without the outliers is given by
\frac{23+24+26+27}{4} = \frac{100}{4} =25

Therefore, </span>when <span>the outliers are removed, the mean remains the same.</span>
