Answer:
The answer is below
Explanation:
a) Of the pebbles that were measured, which weight occurs the least?
Soln.: From the line plot, we can see that 3 ounce occurred once, 3 1/2 ounce occurred 4 times, 4 ounce occurred 3 times, 4 1/2 ounce occurred 5 times, 5 ounce occurred 2 times, 5 1/2 ounce occurred 3 times, 6 ounce occurred 2 times.
Therefore 3 ounce occurred the least.
b) What is the total weight of the pebbles represented by the data?
Soln.: The total weight is:
Total weight = (3*1) + (3 1/2 * 4) + (4 * 3) + (4 1/2 * 5) + (5 * 2) + (5 1/2 * 3) + (6 * 2) = 90 ounce
c) Is there an outlier in the data set? If so what number is the outlier?
Soln.: There is no outlier in the data set because all the data are close to each other.
