Explanation / Answer

rearrange data

29.45,29.49,29.50,29.61,29.79

n=5

we hypothesize 29.45 is an outlier

Q=GAP/RANGE

Q=0.04/29.79-29.45

Q=0.04/0.34

Q=0.118

With 5 observations

Q CRIT FOR 90%=0.642

Q<Q CRIT

FAIL TO REJECT NULL HYPOTHESIS

ACCEPT NULL HYPOTHESIS

29.45 IS NOT AN OUTLIER

ANSWERS

29.45%

Q=0.118

NO
