MUST ANSWER ALL PARTS!!!!

Identify the outlier in the data set. Then determine how the outlier affects the mean, median, and mode of the data. Then tell which measure of central tendency best describes the data with and without the outlier.

48, 46, 52, 92, 57, 58, 52, 92, 57, 58, 52, 61, 56

Hello there,

The outlier of the data set is 92. Lets first find everything with the outlier.
Mean: 60.08
Median: 57
Mode: 52 
Range:46

Now let's take out the outlier of the set and see the difference.
Mean: 54.27
Median:56
Mode: 52
Range: 15

So as we can see without the outlier everything is closer together. The outlier shouldn't be included because that makes the entire set screwed up. The data is more accurate without the outlier.

Hope this helps!
