Respuesta :
Outliers should be excluded when producing a trend line, regardless of the method used. The student got a score of 100 with no sleep. This data pair was a rare event. If the outlier was included, it would cause the trend line to misrepresent the typical data relationship.

sample response: Before entering data into the regression calculator, or in any method for producing trend lines, outliers should be excluded.
