Question
Use the image to answer the question.
A scatterplot shows the number of hours studied versus test grade.
The horizontal axis shows the number of hours studied, ranging from 0 to 10 in increments of 1. The vertical axis shows the test grade, ranging from 0 to 100 in increments of 5, starting with a jump from 0 to 35. A kink is shown on the vertical axis close to origin. A dot is plotted at 0.5 on the horizontal axis and 45 on the vertical axis. A loosely packed cluster of data plots is plotted between 1 to 4.5 on the horizontal axis and 77 and 98 on the vertical axis.
What are the characteristics of the graph?

To answer this question, we need to analyze the characteristics of the scatterplot shown in the image.
From the description provided, we can see that there is a dot plotted at 0.5 on the horizontal axis and 45 on the vertical axis, along with a loosely packed cluster of data plots between 1 to 4.5 on the horizontal axis and 77 to 98 on the vertical axis.
Based on this information, we can determine that there is one cluster of data points, represented by the loose cluster between 1 to 4.5 on the horizontal axis and 77 to 98 on the vertical axis.
However, there is no mention of any outliers in the description, which means there are no data points that stand out as significantly different from the rest.
Therefore, the correct answer would be: There are no outliers and one cluster.
The characteristics of the graph are:
- There is one cluster of data plots between 1 to 4.5 on the horizontal axis and 77 and 98 on the vertical axis.
- There are no outliers.
So, the correct answer is: There are no outliers and one cluster.
