Answer:

The datapoint 9.0 ppm is outlier at the 90% confidence level.

Explanation:

The old data has following values

mean=10.5 mm

standard deviation 0.2 mm

Now the mean of new values is calculated as following

[tex]mean=\frac{10+10.4+10.2+10.8+10.1+10.5+10.1}{7}\\mean=10.3 ppm[/tex]

So the value as 9.0 ppm can be considered easily as outlier in  this regard.
