A student decided to research primate psychology for their science project. They measured how long it took gorillas to adapt to
their new habitat when moved from one zoo to another. They measured how long it took the new gorilla to interact regularly (more than 3 times per day) with the gorillas that already live there. Seven different cases were examined and the data collected. What can be said about the data?
1 answer:
The question is not complete, so i have attached it.
Answer:
Option A - The data may not be reliable because there is an outlier.
Step-by-step explanation:
Looking at the question attached and the number of the gorrila vis - a - vis the time to interact, we can see that majority of the time to interact falls between 2.5 and 3.4.
However, we have a time of 8.3 days which is for gorrila 3.
This 8.3 is far higher than the range of the other values. Thus, we have an outlier because an outlier is a value is much more smaller or larger than most of the other values in a set of given data.
Thus, the data may not be reliable because there is an outlier.

<h3>What is a function?</h3>An expression, rule, or law that defines a relationship between one variable (the independent variable) and another variable (the dependent variable).
the complete question is attached below
As, per the data given we can say that
the variation of quantity is 2.
So, the equation can be
y=2x
This equation defined by part (4) of the question.
