A point far away from the other data points is considered a(n) ____?

• cluster

• scatter plot

• outlier

• variable

Is the point in red an outlier?

• Yes

• No

Identify any outliers.

• Outlier at x = 10

• Outlier at x = 15

• Outlier at x = 30

• There aren't any outliers in this graph.

This graph has...

• A cluster and an outlier

• An outlier

• A gap and an outlier

• A cluster

Identify any outliers.

• Outlier at x = 18

• Outlier at x = 12

• Outlier at x = 6

• There aren't any outliers in this graph.

Find the median, first quartile, third quartile, and interquartile range of the data.

• Median: 189

  First Quartile: 182

  Third Quartile: 203

  IQR: 21

• Median: 189.5

  First Quartile: 182

  Third Quartile: 203

  IQR: 21

• Median: 189

  First Quartile: 182

  Third Quartile: 203.5

  IQR: 21.5

• Median: 189.5

  First Quartile: 182

  Third Quartile: 203.5

  IQR: 21.5

Use the interquartile range to identify any outliers in the following data.

• No outliers.

• 43 is an outlier.

Use the interquartile range to identify any outliers in the following data.

• No outliers.

• 88 is an outlier.

Using the information below, identify which of the following is NOT an outlier:
Q1 = 53
Q2 = 55
Q3=61

• 73

• 40

• 80

• 73.5

Use the 1.5 IQR rule to determine if there are any outliers for the following numbers:
84, 88, 72, 74, 98, 16, 94

• Yes, 16 is an outlier.

• Yes, 33 is an outlier.

• Yes, 98 is an outlier.

• There are no numbers less than 39 or greater than 124, therefore there are no outliers.
