Maxine, a physics lecturer, assigns her students a five-page-long assignment on the theory of relativity that needs to be submitted in two days. Only 40% of the class completes the assignment within the specified time. Noticing the delay in submission, Maxine tries to convince her students in a different way. She tells them that though the assignment involves extensive research and is difficult to complete within a short time, it is important as the scores obtained will be added to their physics theory scores. The next day, almost 70% of the class turns up with their assignments. In the context of persuasion, this scenario illustrates:

Griffin correctly concludes that the coordinate pair for the russian federation is an influential point, because removing the russian federation from the relationship will significantly change the trend of the regression line. is an influential point, because removing the russian federation from the relationship will not significantly affect the estimated coefficient of determination of the regression line. is not an influential point, because the russian federation does not have the highest cvdir of all 1111 nations in the scatterplot. is an influential point, because removing the russian federation from the relationship will not significantly affect the estimated slope of the regression line. is not an influential point, because the russian federation has a positive residual in the least-squares linear regression.
