Question

So the questions is,
add an outlier to the previous data set and explain what effect it has on each measure.
1,2,3,4,5,5,5,5,5,5

Answer 1

well 50 is an outlier

mode won't change

mean gets larger

median, the position moves from the 5th, to between the 5th and 6th, but the value is unchanged at 5.

the range gets larger.... 50 - 1 = 49

Answer 2

you should calculate the mean with the outlier included and without the outlier, to show the change
