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.

If mercury had a heavy atmosphere would there be more or fewer craters on its surface why?

There would be fewer. This is not because, as is widely believed, the atmosphere acts as a shield. While an atmosphere will cause smaller objects to break up, it will not hinder the larger objects that leave craters that are plainly visible from space. However, action from an atmosphere can erode craters and bury them under sediment.


Why Do many people buy larger houses after they retire and the children have left home?

More parents down-size to a smaller house once the children leave home if they would like to travel or do not want the upkeep of a larger home. By selling a larger home for a good market value and buying a smaller home they are saving a lot of money. Some parents may well choose a larger home for reasons of their own or they may feel they want to have more room for future grandchildren staying overnight or, the parents have saved their money and raised their children in a small home and feel the need for a larger home with more space.
