The data-set that places 22.6 as an outlier is given as follows:

2.4, 5.3, 3.5, 22.6, 1.8, 2.1, 4.6, 1.9

<h3>When a measure is considered an outlier in a data-set?</h3>

A measure is considered an outlier in a data-set if it is very far from other measures, especially in these two cases:

If the measure is considerably less than the second smallest value.

If the measure is considerably more than the second highest value.

In this problem, he data-set that places 22.6 as an outlier is given as follows:

2.4, 5.3, 3.5, 22.6, 1.8, 2.1, 4.6, 1.9.

The second highest value is 5.3, which is considerably less than 22.6, hence 22.6 is an outlier in the data-set.

Make a table of values and create a line of best fit

Anni [7]

<h2>Explanation:</h2><h2></h2>

Hello! remember you have to write complete questions in order to get good and exact answers. Here I'll explain this in a general way assuming the following table:

$\begin{array}{cc}x & y\\0 & 0\\1 & 2\\2 & 4\\3 & 6\\4 & 8\\5 & 10\end{array}$

As you can see, x increases in steps of 1 units. So let's check the difference in y:

$\bullet \ \text{From x=0 to x=1} \\ \\ \Delta y=2-0=2 \\ \\ \\ \bullet \ \text{From x=1 to x=2} \\ \\ \Delta y=4-2=2 \\ \\ \\ \bullet \ \text{From x=2 to x=3} \\ \\ \Delta y=6-4=2 \\ \\ \\ \bullet \ \text{From x=3 to x=4} \\ \\ \Delta y=8-6=2 \\ \\ \\ \bullet \ \text{From x=4 to x=5} \\ \\ \Delta y=10-8=2$

So we have a constant difference and we can conclude the table represents a line. Since the line passes through then y is directly proportional to x, so we can write:

$y=kx \\ \\ Where: \\ \\ k \ is \ constant \ of \ proportionality \ or \ the \ slope$
