Answer 1

The outlier in the scatter plot is the point that is significantly separated from the other points, either at a much higher or much lower value. This point may not follow the general trend of the data and can skew the overall interpretation of the relationship between math and science grades. Look for the point that is the furthest away from the main cluster of data points to identify the outlier.
