The ages of the Wimbleton tennis champions in the men’s and women’s singles from 1970 to 1990 are shown below. The dot (*) between two stems breaks the stem into two parts (ie. 20-24, 25-29). Find the range of ages for the men and the women. Are there any outliers? If so, what are their ages? * Women 1 2 * 3 9,9,9 0,1,1,2 5,6,6,7,7,8,8,8,9,9 0,1,1,3 Key: 1|8 means 18 Men * 8,7 4,4,4,3,2,2,2,2,1,1,1 9,7,7,6,5,5 1 14 No!
