Math Problem Statement

Use the magnitudes (Richter scale) of the earthquakes listed in the data set below. Find the mean and median of this data set. Is the magnitude of an earthquake measuring 7.0 on the Richter scale an outlier when considered in the context of the sample data given?

Solution

It looks like you uploaded an image with earthquake Richter scale data. To assist you with finding the mean and median, I need to see the data first. Let me extract and analyze it. PIL import Image import pytesseract

Open the uploaded image

image_path = '/mnt/data/1739161785564ok7wgwmb.jpg' image = Image.open(image_path)

Use pytesseract to extract text from the image

extracted_text = pytesseract.image_to_string(image)

Show the extracted text

extracted_textThe text from the image contains the instructions and the options for the questions, but it does not show the actual earthquake magnitude data needed to calculate the mean and median.

Could you provide the earthquake data or upload a clearer image of the data set? This will allow me to help you find the mean, median, and determine if the 7.0 magnitude is an outlier.
