Question

Look at the data on the line plot. A line plot shows a number line 0.1 to 0.7 in intervals of 0.1. 0.1 has 1 dot. 0.5 has 2 dots. 0.6 has 4 dots. 0.7 has 1 dot. Which data value would be considered the outlier? Enter your answer in the box.

Answer 2

0.1 is the outlier

Explanation:

Though the question has a missing attachment (of the line plot), the question can still be answered.

The given data can be represented as;

`\begin{array}{cc}{} &{Dots} & {0.1} & {1} & {0.5} & {2} & {0.6} & {4} & {0.7} & {1} \ \end{array}`

Notice that 0.1 is not as close as to other data as the closeness of 0.5, 0.6 and 0.7.

This implies that 0.1 is an outlier.
