An outlier is a data point that is set off from the other data points.
Relationship: Negative linear Outliers: (21,40) Gap: None Cluster: None
Practice makes perfect
A scatter plot is a graph that shows the relationship between two data sets. Let's begin by reviewing different relationships between data.
Now, let's consider the given scatter plot.
We can see that the points lie close to an imaginary line. As x increases, y decreases. Therefore, there is a negative linear relationship.
Next, let's recall some important definitions.
Outlier
Cluster
Gap
An outlier is a data point that is set off from the other data points.
A cluster is a group of points that lie close together.
A gap is an area on the graph that contains no data.
With these definitions in mind, we can finally make some conclusions about the outliers, clusters, and gaps in our graph.
