Question

the relationship between the number of books a person read in the past year and the age of the person is shown on the scatter plot.
number of books read
in the past year
what is true about the data set?
a there is an outlier.

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the scatter plot

Look at the points in the scatter plot. Most points are clustered around lower values of books read (0 - 15) for ages 13 - 17. At age 18, the number of books read is 25, which is far from the cluster.

Step2: Define an outlier

An outlier is a data point that is significantly different from other data points. The point at (18, 25) is much higher than the other points, so it's an outlier.

Answer:

A. There is an outlier.
