Respuesta :

so the mean without 894 would be 52.57 
with the 894, the mean would be 157.75
idk what your options are, but there ya go

Answer:

The mean increases.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data set is :

34, 75, 26, 81, 65, 38, 49

Arranging in ascending order, we have

26, 34, 38, 49, 65, 75, 81

Mean = [tex]\frac{26+34+38+49+65+75+81 }{7}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{368}{7}=52.57[/tex]

When 894 is included in the data, the mean becomes

[tex]\frac{368+894}{8}=157.75[/tex]

So, the mean increases.
