How does the outlier effect the mean in math?
The outlier could affect the mean by making it drastically larger or smaller.
If an outlier is included with a sample of 50 values all of which are the same what is the effect of the outlier on the mean?
By definition, an outlier will not have the same value as other data points in the dataset. So, the correct question is "What is the effect of an outlier on a dataset's mean." The answer is that the outlier moves the mean away from the value of the other 49 identical values. If the outlier is the "high tail" the mean is moved to a higher value. If the outlier is a "low tail" the mean is moved to a lower value.
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.
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.
How does an outlier in a group of numbers affect the mean of the numbers?
The outlier skews the mean towards it.

What is the effect of extreme value on mean?
Outliers pull the mean in the direction of the outlier.
In 64 65 62 69 59 23 61 67 which is the outlier and the effect it has on the mean?
the outlier is 23 and it made it decrease
Does an outlier have a greater effect on the standard deviation or interquartile range?
On the standard deviation. It has no effect on the IQR.
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.
What is an outliers effect on the mean?
if the oulier is REALLY high, the mean gets higher if the outlier is REALLY low, the mean gets lower

How does the outlier effect the mean median and mode in a set of data?
There would be a difference to the median. The old number wouldn't be the median but the mode wouldn't change. If the outlier is a high value, it will cause the mean value to shift to the higher side, while a low valued outlier will drop the mean value to a lower number.

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.
How does an outlier in a group of numbers affect the mean of the numbers?
The outlier skews the mean towards it.
How does outlier affect mean median mode?
An outlier pulls the mean towards it. It does not affect the median and only affects the mode if the mode is itself the outlier.
