Use the magnitudes (Richter scale) of the 600 earthquakes listed in Data Set 21 Earthquakes in Appendix

Question:

Use the magnitudes (Richter scale) of the 600 earthquakes listed in Data Set 21 "Earthquakes" in Appendix B. In 1989, the San Francisco Bay Area was struck with an earthquake that measured 7.0 on the Richter scale. That earthquake occurred during the warm up period for the third game of the baseball World Series. Is the magnitude of that World Series earthquake an outlier when considered in the context of the sample data given in Data Set 21? Explain
Data Set 21
MAGNITUDE DEPTH
2.45 .................0.7
3.62 ................. 6.0
3.06 ................. 7.0
3.30 ................. 5.4
1.09 ................. 0.5
Refer to the indicated data set in Appendix B. Use software or a calculator to find the means and medians.
