MEDAL Here are 10 test scores: 73, 74, 76, 77, 78, 79, 80, 80, 82, 84. The mean of these scores is 78.3. Does this set have an outlier and, if so, how does removing it affect the mean? A. The set has 73 as an outlier and removing it increases the mean by about 0.5. B. The set has 73 as an outlier and removing it decreases the mean by about 0.5. C. This data set has no outliers. D. The set has 73 as an outlier and removing it decreases the mean by about 10.

@Whitemonsterbunny17

OpenStudy (jadeishere):

It has no outlier..

OpenStudy (jadeishere):

an outlier is a value that does not fit with the set of values, so 30 (or something like that) would be an outlier

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay hmmm can you please explain a little more?

OpenStudy (jadeishere):

Welp, what do you need clarification on?

OpenStudy (mysangels):

an outlier is a number that is not near the cluster, so it could be c

OpenStudy (anonymous):

like what you said i dont understand

OpenStudy (jadeishere):

Okay >.< it's asking for an outlier to the set of values. notice how all the numbers in the set of values are in the 70's or 80's

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay thanks you too:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you help me with more?

OpenStudy (jadeishere):

So you understand?

OpenStudy (jadeishere):

yeah, but I may leave unexpectedly

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes i do and okay

Kelly went bowling five times during the summer. Her scores were 130, 160, 120, 213, and 220. If she wanted to misrepresent the data to impress people with how well she bowled during the summer which measure would she most likely use? A. range B. mode C. maximum D. median

OpenStudy (anonymous):

C?

OpenStudy (jadeishere):

The maximum, yep :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay:)

OpenStudy (jadeishere):

You didn't need my help for that! xD

If x can be any number, how many solutions are there for the equation? y = 4x + 1 A. There is only one solution because all equations have one solution. B. There are many solutions because there are many values for the variables that make the equation true. C. There are two solutions because there are two variables in the equation. D. There is no solution because there are no values for the variables that make the equation true. Question Resources i think it is C

OpenStudy (jadeishere):

Yeah, I believe it is C, too

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is the ordered pair (1, 4) the solution to the equation y = 2x + 1? A. Yes, because the ordered pair fits the equation. B. No, because the ordered pair does not fit the equation. C. Yes, because the ordered pair is the only solution to the equation. D. No, because the ordered pair is not the only solution to the equation.

OpenStudy (jadeishere):

no, it's A. If you think about it, (for the last question)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay

OpenStudy (jadeishere):

okay for this one, tell me does 2 + 1 = 4?

OpenStudy (jadeishere):

plug in (1, 4) to y = 2x + 1 4 = y and 2x = 2

OpenStudy (mysangels):

y= 4x +1 is b because you can substitute x with anything

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay thanks:)(: so much:)

OpenStudy (jadeishere):

So what mysangels just said.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay i just attached both to this one :)

OpenStudy (mysangels):

and for the last question, it is also b because if you multiply 2 by 1, then add 1, you get 3, not 4

OpenStudy (jadeishere):

positive correlation

OpenStudy (jadeishere):

notice how the plots are moving upward and to the right >.<

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you please explain please jadeeishere

OpenStudy (jadeishere):

Yeah, if you look at the graph, scatter plots use a correlation, whether it be negative, positive, or no correlation. What you do is find the line of origin, or the line of best fit. the line will tell you if it is positive or negative.

OpenStudy (jadeishere):

Positive correlation has a line that rises from left to right, while negative rises from right to left. No correlation has intercepts all over the graph

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh okay:)(:

@asatt32 help

Peter drove 300 miles in 5 hours. Jane drove 400 miles in 8 hours. Who drove at a higher speed? A. Jane B. Peter

@wolistin @quirkymalik @kellyking @xTrinKittenx @SyedaLovesPie @ganeshie8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Whitemonsterbunny17

OpenStudy (anonymous):

B?

whitemonsterbunny17 (whitemonsterbunny17):

I think it is Peter because he drove 300 miles in only 5 hours, while Jane drove only 400 miles in 8 hours. So yes, B. (:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks and can ya help me with more?

whitemonsterbunny17 (whitemonsterbunny17):

I can try (:

whitemonsterbunny17 (whitemonsterbunny17):

Just tag me in them (:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay:)(:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry, math isnt my strong suit

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its okay:)
