True - since the outlier is way off it will cause your average to mess up which is why we test multiple times to make sure we are more accurate with our numbers

Answer:

<em>True</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. Firstly, the definition of an outlier is a number farther away from the general populous of digits. For example, a number line can have a lot of numbers clustered at 2, 3, and 4 but might have one way over on 10. This would mean 10 is an outlier.
  2. Secondly, a skew is when a dot plot or a box and whisker plot is shaped a certain way. A negative skew would be a graph sloping to the right, and a positive skew is a graph sloping to the left. It looks a bit like a hill.
  3. Knowing that the shape is made up of the different numbers and their amount, we can conclude that an outlier, or a number that is stretched far from the others, would affect the data set.
  4. This means that the skew might change if there is a variable that is out of place.

If I am incorrect in my reasoning, please let me know so that I can plan better for my future answers. Have an amazing day.

the fire hydrant sits 72 feet from the base of a 125-foot buiding. Find the ANGLE OF ELEVATION from the fire hydrant to the top
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

  60°

Step-by-step explanation:

The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA reminds you of the relationship between angles and sides in a right triangle. Here, we're given the side Adjacent and the side Opposite the angle of interest. This makes it appropriate to choose the relation ...

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

For our angle of elevation α, this means ...

  tan(α) = 125/72

  α = arctan(125/72) = 60.058°

  α ≈ 60°

The angle of elevation is about 60°.

A couple of college students frustrated with the current class registration process decide to survey 500 random students on camp
aleksklad [387]
<h3>♫ - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ~Hello There!~ - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ♫</h3>

➷ Standard deviation = \sqrt{(n*p)(1 - p)}

Substitute the values in:

\sqrt{(500 *0.84)(1-0.84)} = 8.1975...

This can be rounded to give an approximate answer of 8.2

The answer is option A.

A line is parallel to y= 4x-2 and intersects the point (5,-11). what is the equation of this parallel line?
mina [271]

The equation of line parallel to given line is: y=4x-31

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation of line is:

The equation of line is in slope-intercept form so the co-efficient of x is the slope of the line.

Let m1 be the slope of the given line

then

m1 = 4

Let m2 be the line that is parallel to given line

As we know that the slopes of parallel lines is equal so

m1=m2 = 4

The slope-intercept form of equation of line is:

Putting the value of slope

to find the value of b, putting (5,-11) in the equation

Putting the value of b

Hence,

The equation of line parallel to given line is: y=4x-31

Keywords: Equation of line, slope
