The data point that should be removed in order for the mean to be a better representation of the dataset is 149.
If we remove 149 from the dataset, the new mean would be calculated as follows:
(108 + 113 + 98 + 109 + 121 + 111 + 99 + 100) / 7 = 104.8571
This new mean of 104.8571 would be a better representation of the dataset without the outlier of 149.
If we remove 149 from the dataset, the new mean would be calculated as follows:
(108 + 113 + 98 + 109 + 121 + 111 + 99 + 100) / 7 = 104.8571
This new mean of 104.8571 would be a better representation of the dataset without the outlier of 149.
