Analyzing the Effect of Outliers on the Mean
Analyzing the Effect of Outliers on the Mean is a skill on Pengi from Lesson 2: Mean in Big Ideas Math, Advanced 1.
Key Concepts
An outlier is an extreme value that is much higher or lower than the other values in a data set. Outliers have a strong effect on the mean because the mean uses all values in its calculation. When an outlier is present, it pulls the mean toward the extreme value, making the mean less representative of the typical values in the data set.
To calculate the mean: $\text{mean} = \frac{\text{sum of all values}}{\text{number of values}}$.
