  2. Patience is a virtue!

    Your type of question is not easy to answer in this type of format, but surely
    if you are asked this question by your teacher you must have learned some
    kind of method to solve it. There are many ways, some very rigorous, some
    rather straightforward.
    Here is a video, in a rather boring presentation, that shows what you should do.
    Too bad your data values are rather large numbers, so plotting them will
    require some estimation right off the start.
    good luck
