During a meteor shower, Kate counts how many meteors she sees each minute. During the first 5 minutes she sees 6, 4, 10, 3, and 7 meteors. If she sees 10 meteors in the next minute, how does this affect the mean of the data? How does seeing 10 affect the standard deviation of the data?

    If Kate is measuring the average amount of meteors per minute, then having the ten in there compared to say the 4, it will create an uneven balance in the average, however if she is using a median or the other method, it will not greatly matter.
