Answer 1

(A), (C) and (D)

Explanation:

The given data set values are:

71, 96, 110, 112, 114, 114, 121, 127, 135, 175, 180

An outlier is an observation that is quite far away or different from the rest of the data set values.

From the given data set, 71, 175 and 180 are outliers because they are quite different from the rest of the given data values as the given data set values ranges from 96-127.

Hence, option A, C and D are correct.
