Answer:

(C)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given data set is:

98, 19, 14, 15, 18, 16, 20, 22, 12, 17, 13, 21, 18, 15

Arranging the given data set in ascending order, we get

12, 13, 14, 15, 15, 16, 17, 18, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 98

Since, outlier is an observation point which is quite different from the rest of the given data set values, thus from the given data set, 98 is an outlier as it is quite different from rest of the given data values.

Now, let us consider the data set values without 98,

12, 13, 14, 15, 15, 16, 17, 18, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22

The mean is:

M=\frac{12+13+14+15+15+16+17+18+18+19+20+21+22}{13}=16.92

Also,  let us consider the data set values with 98,

12, 13, 14, 15, 15, 16, 17, 18, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22,98

The mean is:

M=\frac{12+13+14+15+15+16+17+18+18+19+20+21+22+98}{14}=22.71

Now, in case of mean 16.92, the data values are almost symmetric in left and right side of the mean 16.92 but in case of mean 22.71, the data values are not symmetric in left and right side of the mean 16.92.

Thus, 98 is an outlier.

Therefore, There is one outlier, indicating an abnormally large number of books were rented out on that day.

Hence, option (C) is correct.
