Add each of the following (X, Y) score pairs to the data in the table below. (Add only the single data point in each part of this problem, so that there are always eight scores in the sample.) For each part, sketch a scatterplot of the data with the additional point included and compute the correlation between X and Y with the additional point included. Compare these correlations to the one you computed in section II question #1 above. Note how the correlation is affected by an extreme score.

a) (10, 10)
b) (10, -10) (Yes, the kid whose data were added in part b actually threw the discus in

the wrong direction, so that distance is negative.)

Distance jumped in feet (X)	Distance of discus throw in feet (Y)
3	1
1	3
4	5
1	1
3	4
5	1
1	2
