Math Problem Statement

Find the mean and median of the earthquake magnitudes (Richter scale) provided in the data set. Determine if an earthquake measuring 7.0 is an outlier.

Solution

The image shows a question asking to find the mean and median of a data set related to earthquake magnitudes (Richter scale) and to determine if an earthquake measuring 7.0 is an outlier. However, I can't see the specific data set required to perform these calculations.

Could you provide the earthquake magnitudes listed in the data set, so I can help you calculate the mean, median, and determine if the 7.0 magnitude is an outlier?
