Outliers are data that are in a very far distance from other values in a set of data

Once an outlier is detected in a set of data, we can do the following to them:

  • Discard the outlier
  • Change the value of the outlier with another value within close range
  • Consider the distribution given

We may have a set of data where some of the <em>values are far in distance from the majority of the data</em>. The set of such data are known as an outlier.

For example, give the set of data;

  • 2, 4, 7, 45, 8

45 can be considered as an outlier since the <em>distance of data</em><em> to all other data is</em><em> large</em><em>.</em>

Once an outlier is detected in a set of data, we can do the following to them:

  • Discard the outlier
  • Change the value of the outlier with another value within close range
  • Consider the distribution given

What is the slope of a line that passes through the points (3, 1) and (2, 5) Please help! thanks!
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]
3=x1. 1=y1
2=x2. 5=y2

the formula to find slope is y2-y1 divided by x2-x1

so it would be 5-1 over 2-3 which would be 4/-2 and if you need it simplified it would be -2
