Why is the mean not affected by very high or low values in the data?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Sorry if I am wrong:
The median is found by listing the data points in numerical order from smallest to largest. Then you have to find the datum in the middle. So it doesn't have to do much about the high or low values in the data.

2) Amanda invests $6,540 in a retirementaccount with a fixed annual interest rate of

the account balance be after 20 years?
A) $16,031.88 B) $17,704.05
C) $15,329.01 D) $16,844.10

Answers

Answer:

B) $17,704.05

Step-by-step explanation:

20 years later is a time in the future so you use Future value formula;

FV = PV* (1+r)^t

where PV= Amount invested in the present = $6,540

r= discount rate = (5% / 6) = 0.833% or 0.00833

t= total duration = 20 *6 = 120

Next, plug in the numbers into the formula;

=6,540* (1+0.00833)^120

=6,540 * 2.707041491

= 17,704.05

Answers

Answer:

C has the highest range..

Therefore the answer is C. 49, 17, 4, 18....

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given 4 data sets:

Notice that the mean of all the data set is 88

Now to find that which data set is the most spread from its mean we have to find the Range of each set.

We can find the range by subtracting lowest value from the highest value of the data set

Range of set A = Highest value - Lowest value

Highest value of set A is 36

Lowest value of set A is 6

Therefore,

Range of set A = 36-6

Range of set A = 30

Range of set B = Highest value - Lowest value

Highest value of set B is 30

Lowest value of set B is 15

Therefore,

Range of set B = 30-15

Range of set B = 15

Range of set C = Highest value - Lowest value

Highest value of set C is 49

Lowest value of set C is 4

Therefore,

Range of set C = 49-4

Range of set C = 45

Range of set D = Highest value - Lowest value

Highest value of set D is 30

Lowest value of set D is 14

Therefore,

Range of set D = 30-14

Range of set D = 16

Hence C has the highest range..

Therefore the answer is C. 49, 17, 4, 18....
