A dog gave birth to 4 puppies. Three of the puppies had different masses between 145 and 157g, and one puppy had a mass of 59g.

The puppy that had a mass of 59g was then adopted, so that puppy was removed from the data set.

How will the removal of the puppy affect the mean and median?
the mean will decrease, and the median will increase
Both the mean and median will increase, but the mean will increase by more than the median
Both the mean and median will increase, but the median will increase by more than the mean
Both the mean and median will decrease, but the mean will decrease by more than the mean
Both the mean and median will decrease, but the median will decrease by more than the mean.

Look it up the element on the periodic table to see if its atomic weight is within the middle 50% of atomic weights. If it is, then it is not an outlier, but if it isn't then it is an outlier.
Mutiply the IQR of the data set by 1.5. Add that product to the third quartile and subtract that product from the first quartile to determine the fences for the range of non-outlier elements, anything above or below the range of those fences is considered an outlier.
Add the IQR to the median to determine the upper fence for non-outlier numbers and subtract the IQR from the median to dermine the lower fence for non-outlier numbers. Anything beyond those fences in either direction is considered an outlier.
If it looks like an outlier then it is an outlier.
Outliers do not exist in data, they are only thought to exist by those who do not understand data.
Add the range of the data set to the median to determine the upper fence for non-outlier numbers and subtract the range from the median to dermine the lower fence for non-outlier numbers. Anything beyond those fences in either direction is considered an outlier.

A group of Americans participated in a study that involved taking their temperatures during exercise is moderate heat. The participants had a mean body temperature of 104 degrees F and a standard deviation of 2 degrees F.

Doctors analyzing the results prefer to work in degrees Celsius, so they convert the data by applying the formula below to each data point:


If each temperature is converted to degrees Celsius, what will be the mean and standard deviation of the distribution of new temperatures?
Mean: 57.8 degrees C, Standard Deviation: 1.11 degrees C
Mean: 57.8 degrees C, Standard Deviation: 2 degrees C
Mean: 40 degrees C, Standard Deviation: -16.67 degrees C
Mean: 40 degrees C, Standard Deviation: 1.11 degrees C
Mean: 40 degrees C, Standard Deviation: 2 degrees C

An international cake competition attracted 50 bakers from around the world. The graph shown below displays the relationship between the amount of sugar in the cakes (in grams per 100 grams of cake) and the scores the cakes received.

Cakes with more sugar always scored higher.
Cakes that had between 25 and 35 grams of sugar per 100 grams of cake scored higher.
Cakes that had between 15 and 25 grams of sugar per 100 grams of cake scored higher.
Cake scores and sugar content had no significant association
None of the above

Julio distributed a survey to his fellow students asking them how many hours they spent playing sports in the past day. He also asked them to rate their mood on a scale from 0 to 10, with 10 being the happiest. Julio created the following scatterplot and regression line to show this relationship.

The fitted line has a y-intercept of 5.

What is the best interpretation of this y-intercept?


Students who had a mood rating of 0 must have spent 5 hours playing sports.
The best interpretation of the y-intercept is when the line moves through the x axis.
The average mood rating was 5.
When hours playings sports is 0 the mood averages a residual of 5 away from the prediction of the model.
The model indicates that students who spent 0 hours playing sports will have an average mood rating of 5.
