determine whether the mean or the median best describes the center of the data set and give its value. (4 points)
the mean best describes the center because the data are all close together. the mean is 54,391.
the median best describes the center because the data are all close together. the median is 44,416.
the mean best describes the center because it is not affected by an extreme value. the mean is 54,391.
the median best describes the center because it is not affected by an extreme value. the median is 44,416.

The median best describes the centre because it is not affected by an extreme value. The median is 44,416.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean

Mean = Sum of all data/number of data

Sum of all data: 28,457 +29,290 +31,730 +35,351 +41,710 +47,122 +47,966 +49,589 +58,698 +174,000 = 543913

Number of data: 10

Sum of data = 543913/10

Sum of data = 54391.3 rounded off to 54391

Median

Write all numbers in ascending order.

28,457

29,290

31,730

35,351

41,710

47,122

47,966

49,589

58,698

174,000

Median for even number data = n/2

n = total number of data

Median = 10/2

Median = 5th + 6th term / 2

Median = 41,710 +47,122 / 2

Median = 44,416

The median best describes the centre because it is not affected by an extreme value. The median is 44,416.

to plot points   for x just start at the origin (middle) and go to the left however many times it say(if the number is a positive) if the number is a negative then go right however many times it says if it is 0 go nowhere

now keep you pencil there and go up however many times it says on y(if it is positive) if it is negative then go down however many times it says. if it says 0 go nowhere.

you have just plotted a point! now when you finish plotting all of them connect them with a ruler

plot each point as (-3, 7), (0,4), (3,1), (8,-4)   in the parenthesis on the left of the comma is x and the right is y.

i think the answer is d im not sure
