What effect will the presence of the outlier in the data set below have on the median of the data set? {78, 99, 85, 92, 97, 90, 89, 27, 97, 72, 75, 83, 91, 96} A.The outlier will make the median significantly greater than it would have been without the outlier. B.The outlier will make the median significantly less than it would have been without the outlier. C.The outlier will have no significant effect on the median of the data set. D.No outlier exists in this data set.

OpenStudy (imstuck):

It doesn't seem to me that there is an outlier. No one number is so much greater or so much less than any of the others...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@IMStuck I think 27 is an outlier.

OpenStudy (imstuck):

Oh wait.....I see a 27! Gotcha! Ok! That 27 will throw the median lower than normal.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If 27 is an outlier, then it should be B , it will make the median less.

Thank you so much <3

Can you help me with a couple more please?

What is the probability of drawing three black cards, one at a time with replacement, from a standard deck of 52 cards? A. 3/52 C. 1/8 B. 2/17 D. 75/676

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I am not sure about that one because your equation is written in a weird form.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well i dont know. thats the way it's written.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

In a deck of cards, there are 26 black cards out of 52. 26/52 would be 1/2 If you replace it then it will be 1/2 forever so you do \[\frac{ 1 }{ 2 }\times \frac{ 1 }{ 2 }\times \frac{ 1 }{ 2 }= \frac{ 1 }{ }\]

Here for the question about the tickets https://media.education2020.com/evresources/2003-18-07-00-00_files/i0260000.jpg

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think it's C.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes It's C :) I just realized I forgot to put the 8 so it must've looked like a puzzle to you.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

haha thanks. :D
