What are the coordinates for the outlier in the data? (,)

x 3 4 3 4 6 8 5 7 2

y 1 8 3 7 28 7 6 3 9

X = 3, 4, 3, 4, 6, 8, 5, 7, 2

y = 1, 8, 3, 7, 28, 7, 6, 3, 9

Outliers in a data set are those numbers that are quite far from the range of the data set.

Since the numbers in x are quite close together, we need to consider the numbers in y for the outliers.

We need to arrange the data set from least to greatest.

y = 1, 3, 3, 6, 7, 7, 8, 9, 28

As you can observe, 28 is the outlier because it is farthest form the group of numbers.

Since 28 is the y outlier, we need to find its corresponding x pair to get the coordinate for the outlier.

x = 6, y = 28. That is why (6,28) is the answer.
