An outlier is a number completely different from the rest in a set of data.
For example, in the set:
13, 17, 22, 15, 19, 11, 342, 14
342 is the outlier.

How does the outlier effect the mean in math?
The outlier could affect the mean by making it drastically larger or smaller.
What does the term outlier in math mean?
i don't know but it's one ov my vocab that i have to turn in:)
Can you not have an outlier in math?
It's possible. An outlier is a number that affects the the mean of a group of numbers greatly. For example the mean in this set of numbers (2, 4, 1, 5) is 3, but if I add the number 93 the new answer is 21.
Would a mean be smaller or larger if you leave out an outlier?
Depends on whether the outlier was too small or too large. If the outlier was too small, the mean without the outlier would be larger. Conversely, if the outlier was too large, the mean without the outlier would be smaller.
What an outlier in math mean?
a number that is unlike the other numbers. example: if you had the numbers 22, 24, 25, 105 and 20 the outlier would be 105 because it is so far away from the other numbers

Math problem with the numbers 35 23 15 23 If an outlier of 100 is added to the this math problem how will it affect the mean medium and mode?
35, 23, 15, 23: Mean: 24 Median: 23 Mode: 23 35, 23, 15, 23, 100: Mean: 39.2 Median: 23 Mode: 23 In this particular case, only the mean is affected by adding the outlier of 100.

In math what are stem leave outlier?
The one that does not belong
What would happen if a outlier was removed from the mean?
The answer depends on the nature of the outlier. Removing a very small outlier will increase the mean while removing a large outlier will reduce the mean.
Would a mean be smaller or larger if you leave out an outlier?
Depends on whether the outlier was too small or too large. If the outlier was too small, the mean without the outlier would be larger. Conversely, if the outlier was too large, the mean without the outlier would be smaller.

What does outlier's mean?
oulier means something that sticks out in math, like in the number 50, 51, 53, 54, & 100... 100 is the outlier
What is the definition of the math term outlier?
it is the term for matey stuff
How do you determine how the outlier affects the mean median mode and range?
Calculate the mean, median, and range with the outlier, and then again without the outlier. Then find the difference. Mode will be unaffected by an outlier.
What does at least mean in a math problem?
In a math problem, least means smallest.
