Given the box plot, will the mean or the median provide a better description of the center? The mean, because the data distribution is symmetrical The mean, because the data distribution is skewed to the left The median, because the data distribution is skewed to the left The median, because the data distribution is skewed to the right

A teacher promised a movie day to the class that did better, on average, on their test. The box plot shows the results of the test: Which class should get the reward, and why? The 2nd period class should get the reward. They have the highest score, a perfect 100. The 2nd period class should get the reward. They have a higher median. The 4th period class should get the reward. Though the medians are the same, the first and third quartiles are higher, so the students did better on average than in the 2nd period class. The 4th period class should get the reward. Their lowest score is an outlier, and should be thrown out.

OpenStudy (alexandervonhumboldt2):

the who has thr higher maximum

OpenStudy (angel010):

When the outliers are removed, how does the mean change? The mean remains the same. The mean decreases by 2. The mean increases by 2. There are no outliers.

OpenStudy (alexandervonhumboldt2):

maximum of 2nd period win win because they did much better than 4th

OpenStudy (angel010):

thankz your awesome

OpenStudy (alexandervonhumboldt2):

count the mean

OpenStudy (alexandervonhumboldt2):

mean without removing=25 mean with removing=25

OpenStudy (alexandervonhumboldt2):

25=25 so it remains

OpenStudy (angel010):
