Tamika’s math test scores (out of 30) are 25, 28, 26, 25, 8, 29, 28, 24, 23.

a)What is the outlier in this set?

b) Why might Tamika’s teacher decide to remove this outlier when calculating the average for her report card?

c) Which average is affected more by the removal of the outlier, the mean or median? Justify your answer.

I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST IF YOU ANSWER ALL THE 3 QUESTIONS GOOD.

Answers:

A.) 8 is the outlier in the set. It is the only number that doesn't match with the others. It is the furthest from the median of the numbers.

B.) The outlier could represent false information. It could greatly drop the number of the mean, or the average, range of the scores.

C.) The mean is affected more. The mean of a set of numbers is the average of the set. The median just locates the middle-most number. The median would not always give an accurate representation of the average of the set like the mean would.

srry idk

step-by-step explanation:

it's a proportional graph.

step-by-step explanation:

8 x 5 = 40         (and you have -8x and -5y)

x= absiss

y= orderly

so you have a proportional graph.
