The outlier is 20
it affect the mean because
1)32 +40+34+ 31 +20+ 36 +40+31=264
2) 264 divided by 8= 33
so it gives you an odd number
P = √ab
p² = ab
p²/b = a
a = p²/b
Answer: 5 cookies
Step-by-step explanation: 8 + .4c = 2.5 + 1.5c
8 + 0.4c = 2.5 + 1.5c
8 · 10 + 0.4c · 10 = 2.5 · 10 + 1.5c · 10
80 + 4c = 25 + 15c
4c = 15c - 55
4c - 15c = 15c - 55 - 15c
-11c = -55
c = 5
Ok! So, given a quadratic function<span>, </span>y<span> = ax</span>2<span> + bx + c, when "a" is positive, the </span>parabola <span>opens upward and the vertex is the minimum value. On the other hand, if "a" is negative, the graph opens downward and the vertex is the maximum value. Now, let's refer back to our original graph, </span>y<span> = </span><span>x2</span><span>, where "a" is 1.
Hope this helps.</span>
