The data shown are hourly wages of some employees of a small company.

$8, $18, $20, $22, $24, $34

Which values, if any, are outliers?

A.
$8 only

B.
$34 only

C.
both $8 and $34

D.
none

Respuesta :

The outlier would be $8, because it is far from any of the the other numbers.
8,18,20,22,24,34

Q1 = 18
Q2 = (20 + 22)/2 = 42/2 = 21
Q3 = 24

IQR = Q3 - Q1 = 24 - 18 = 6

outliers would be : 18 - (1.5)6 = 9.....below 9
                               24 + (1.5)6 = 33...above 33

so ur  outliers r both 8 and 34
