Data are collected about the amount of time, in minutes, each member of the lacrosse team spends practicing. How does a single outlier change the mean of the collected data? (4 points) A single outlier causes the value of the mean to move slightly toward the outlier. A single outlier causes the value of the mean to move slightly away from the outlier. A single outlier does not affect the value of the mean. A single outlier doubles the value of the mean.
