A scatterplot shows the number of hours studied versus test grade.
The horizontal axis shows the number of hours studied, ranging from 0 to 10 in increments of 1. The vertical axis shows the test grade, ranging from 0 to 100 in increments of 5, starting with a jump from 0 to 35. A kink is shown on the vertical axis close to origin. A dot is plotted at 0.5 on the horizontal axis and 45 on the vertical axis. A loosely packed cluster of data plots is plotted between 1 to 4.5 on the horizontal axis and 77 and 98 on the vertical axis.

Based on your description of the scatterplot, the correct response would be:
There are no outliers and one cluster.
You mentioned that there is a loosely packed cluster of data points between 1 to 4.5 hours studied and test grades between 77 and 98, and only one dot is mentioned at 0.5 hours and a grade of 45, which does not seem to be classified as an outlier. Therefore, the characteristics suggest that there is one cluster and no outliers.
