An outlier will pull the mean and median towards itself. The extent to which the mean is affected will depend on the number of observations as well as the magnitude of the outlier. The median will change by a half-step.

How The first quartile of a data set is 23 the median is 30 the third quartile is 33 and an outlier is 50. Which of these data values would be represented by a point in a modified box plot?
It is the outlier.
How does the outlier affect the mean of the data?
An outlier does affect the mean of the data. How it's affected depends on how many data points there are, how far from the data the outlier is, whether it is greater than the mean (increases mean) or less than the mean (decreases the mean).
If one outlier is excluded from a data set what must happen to the median?
Hai. :3
Which measure of central tendency best describes the data set wit an outlier?
The median.
Which of the following is least affected if an extreme high outlier is added to your data mean median or standard deviation or ALL?
The median is least affected by an extreme outlier. Mean and standard deviation ARE affected by extreme outliers.
How does an outlier affect data?
it messes up the mean and sometimes the median. * * * * * An outlier cannot mess up the median.
Given the following data 164 175 126 135 159 143 55 what effect will the outlier have on the median of the data if the outlier is excluded?
If the outlier is excluded the median of the data will be higher.
How The first quartile of a data set is 23 the median is 30 the third quartile is 33 and an outlier is 50. Which of these data values would be represented by a point in a modified box plot?
It is the outlier.
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.
Which lists the correct median for the data without the outlier?

How does the outlier effect the data?
Outlier: an observation that is very different from the rest of the data.How does this affect the data: outliers affect data because it means that your calculations might be off which makes it a possibility that more than the outlier is off.
