Which response best describes outliers in these data sets?

leahmarieed · Answer

Neither data set has suspected outliers.
 The range of data is too small to identify outliers.
 Video has a suspected outlier in the 25-hour value.
 The 25-hour value for video does not pass the outlier test of 1.5 ⋅ (IQR) + Q3.
