You are interested in the length of time of a typical top-40 song. You randomly sample a group of 20 songs and come up with the following song lengths (in seconds). The lengths have been sorted for your convenience:

12, 139, 175, 175, 178, 184, 187, 188, 188, 192, 192, 200, 202, 205, 206, 207, 209, 211, 233, 248

1. Before embarking on the numeric analysis, examine the data. Decide whether or not there are any outliers in the data. Because this is a very small dataset, you can simply look over the values. However, a graph such as a boxplot or histogram is an even easier way to quickly identify outliers. (And with larger datasets you will not realistically be able to look at all of them, so you will have to plot the data). However, for now, simply look at them without graphing.
