An advantage of the inverse response plot is that we can find individual points that may be important in fitting curves to the plot. These influential points will often be at the extreme left or at the extreme right of the plot. Removing these points could change the fitted curve substantially. Less often, points that are separated vertically from the fitted line can be influential. The two cities at the far right of the inverse response plot are candidates for influential points. To verify this, refit the transformation methods without these two points and summarize the changes, if any, in choice of transformation.
