Allie said, "Point A is far to the right compared to the rest of the points, so it's an outlier. Removing it would
weaken the overall pattern, so r would get closer to 0.
What is the first mistake in Allie's response?

Sagot :

Explanation:

The answer is that the first mistake in Allie's answer is that point A is clearly not an outlier as it falls near the regression line and is relatively close to the surrounding points.
