HELP ME?!?!?!?!?!?!

Answer 1

The following data set shows the number of books checked out from a library during the first two weeks of the month:

9, 99, 94, 95, 88, 92, 85, 4, 95, 92, 90, 93, 96, 97

Which of the following statements is true based on the data set?

A. There is one outlier, indicating very few books were checked out on that day.
B. There are two outliers, indicating very few books were checked out on those two days.
C. There is one outlier, indicating an abnormally large number of books were checked out on that day.
D. There are two outliers, indicating an abnormally large number of books were checked out on those two days.

Answer 2

What happens when you sort the data set
`9, 99, 94, 95, 88, 92, 85, 4, 95, 92, 90, 93, 96, 97`
from smallest to largest? What do you get?

Answer 3

4,9,85,88,90,92,92,93,94,95,96,97,99

Answer 4

good

Answer 5

After sorting, we get

`4, 9, 85, 88, 90, 92, 92, 93, 94, 95, 95, 96, 97, 99`

where we can see that the majority of the values (every value but two of them) is over 80. The other two values are smaller than 10, so the first two values 4 and 9 are outliers. They represent two days where there was an unusually low amount of books checked out.

Answer 6

Answer 9

is not true because the outliers aren't larger than the rest of the group. It's the other way around
