A dieter recorded the number of calories he consumed at lunch for one week. As you can see, a mistake was made on one entry. The calories are listed in increasing order below. 349, 371, 386, 398, 412, 4190 When the error is corrected by removing the extra 0, will the mean change? Will the median? Explain without doing any calculation. Choose the correct answer below. A. The corrected value will give a different median and a different mean. When an extreme value is introduced into a data set, the measure of center will be affected. Therefore, the removal of the extreme value will also affect the measure of center. O B. The corrected value will give a different mean but not a different median. Medians are resistant to outliers and not as affected by extreme values, but the more extreme a value is, the more the mean is affected by it. O C. The corrected value will give a different median but not a different mean. Means are resistant to outliers and not as affected by extreme values, but the more extreme a value is, the more the median is affected by it. O D. The corrected value will not affect the median or the mean. The extreme value is an outlier, and the measures of center do not take outliers into consideration because they are representative of a typical value in a data set, and the extreme value is not typical.
