### Study of Mosquito Flying Velocity After Feeding#### Overview:Biologists conducted a study to examine the flying velocity of mosquitoes both before and after feeding. The research focuses on how the velocity, measured in centimeters per second, varies with the proportional increase in weight after feeding. Here, a proportional increase of 0.5 indicates a 50 percent weight gain. #### Graph Description:- **Axes**: - **Y-axis**: Velocity (cm/sec), ranging from 0 to 20. - **X-axis**: Proportional Increase in Weight, ranging from 0 to 2.5.- **Data Points**: - Each dot represents a mosquito's flying velocity at a certain proportional weight increase. - Most data points show velocities between 5 and 15 cm/sec, across weight increases from 0 to 2.5.- **Anomaly**: - A point labeled **M** stands out with a velocity of approximately 18 cm/sec at a weight increase of nearly 0.5.#### Analysis Question:- **What is unusual about point M?** - **Option A**: It represents a mosquito that gained the least weight after feeding.This scatterplot helps visualize the relationship between weight gain and flying ability, highlighting changes or outliers, like point M, in mosquito behavior post-feeding. **Title: Analysis of Data Variability in Mosquito Weight Gain****Graph Description:**The graph plots data representing mosquito weight gain after feeding. The x-axis is labeled "Proportional Increase in Weight," and it scales from 0 to over 2. Various data points are plotted to illustrate individual mosquito weight changes following feeding.**Question:**What is unusual about point \( M \)?**Options:**A. It represents a mosquito that gained the least weight after feeding.B. It represents a mosquito that gained the most weight after feeding.C. It represents a mosquito that flew very fast after feeding relative to all other mosquitoes.D. It makes the linear relationship between the variables appear much stronger.E. The point must be an error in data entry because weight cannot be less than 0.**Analysis:**The graph should be analyzed to determine any unusual characteristics or outliers represented by point \( M \). Consider how point \( M \) compares with the other data points in terms of weight gain and any potential data anomalies it might indicate.

We call a data point in a scatter plot as unusual if it is positioned far away from remaining of the…

Biologists conducted a study to investigate the flying velocity of mosquitoes both before and after feeding. The following scatterplot shows the velocity after feeding, in centimeters per se proportional increase in weight after feeding relative to the weight before feeding. For example, 0.5 indicates a 50 percent weight gain after feeding. One point on the graph is labeled M. 20+ • M

Employment. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the number of professional services employees fluctuated during the period 2000-2009, as modeled by E(t) = -28.31t³ +381.86t² - 1162.07t + 16,905.87, where t is the number of years since 2000 (t = 0 corresponds to 2000) and E is thousands of employees.
