Question

Choose the point in the scatter plot that is most likely an outlier.
Select the correct answer below:
(85.5, 54)
(6.0, 12)
(63.5, 26)
(9.0, 17)

Answer 1

To find an outlier, we first want to imagine a line that lines up with most of the points. If we think of all the points as a line, we can see that one point is a lot lower than this line. This point is around (65, 25) so the outlier would be (63.5, 26)
