Solution:

we are given that

Dukes science quiz scores are 99,91,60,94,and 95 .

we have been asked to describe the effect of the outlier on the mean and median.

Mean of the given data

Mean of the given data

Median of the given data after arranging in the ascending order 60,91,94,95,99 is 94.

The outlier is 60.

The outlier is decreasing the value of Mean by

The outlier is decreasing the value of Median by

connie < felicia < stew

step-by-step explanation:

stew:

we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

    = (2650-795)/(10-3)

    = 1855/7

connie:

we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

we have two points (0,0) and (4,800)

m = (800-0)/(4-0)

  m = 800/4

felicia:

260 words per minute

200< 260 < 265

connie < felicia < stew
