What is the best measure of center for this data set? {101, 2, 108, 104, 102, 107, 109, 102}

A. mean because there is an outlier

B. median because there is an outlier

C. mean or median because there is no outlier

D. mode because there is an outlier

it is B the median hope this helps :)

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Mean

Step-by-step explanation:

When there is an outlier, the mean is the best way to figure out the average. Median doesn't work because it determines the exact middle, and the outlier (that 2) would affect it greatly, and the mode doesnt work, because it is the value that apears most in the data set, but just because it appears most doesnt mean its the average. In this case the mode is 102, but that is not the average. I hope this helps :)

step-by-step explanation:

the options are kind of confusing. i can tell you what i see going on here when i look at the graph.

the class and exam medians are closely related, and it looks like the low outlier on the exam did pull the median lower. [tex][/tex]

answer

d. 10

explanation

the distance from point y to wx is the height of the triangle.

using pythagoras theorem,

group similar terms to get,

this implies that,

take positive square root of both sides to get,

this implies that,
