 please find the outliers and make box-and-whisker plot 

 Please show how to use vlookup to find the first quartile, 2nd quartile, compare the result and the sum of the deviations (x-mean)

Comment on the shape of the distribution(symmetric, left-skewed, right skewed)
right skewed
Use the vlookup function to find :
Note: Remember that you have to sort your data first and follow the steps in your class note to find the answer
a) The first quartile
5) The second quartile
=) Compare your result with the one obtained by using the Excel's built-in functions
