Question

the two scatter plots below show the same data set. choose the scatter plot in which the outlier is highlighted.

Explanation:

An outlier is a data point that lies far outside the cluster of the majority of data points. In the first plot, the dark point at (x≈80, y≈75) is separated from the lower y-value cluster on the right. In the second plot, the dark point is within the lower y-value cluster, so it is not the outlier. The first plot correctly highlights the outlier.

Answer:

The left (first) scatter plot, where the dark point at x≈80, y≈75 is highlighted as the outlier.
