Question

Here is the histogram of a data distribution.

Which best describes the shape of this distribution?

Answer 1

B. Unimodal Skewed

Explanation:

The Histogram given in figure has one peak and it is skewed to the right So, it is Right Skewed Unimodal Histogram.

Moreover, Unimodal means the distribution has one peak, Skewed means this peak is present in either the left or right side of the center of the distribution.

Option A is incorrect because the given histogram is not symmetric, it is skewed distribution.

Option C can't be taken because uniform means the size of bars is approximately same for the given distribution.

Options D & E is not correct because the given distribution is not Bimodal it has only one peak.

Answer 2

B. Unimodal-Skewed

Explanation:

A distribution is called unimodal if it has only one hump in the histogram.

A symmetric distribution is equally divided on both sides of the highest hump.

The given histogram has only one hump at 4 and as it is not symmetrically distributed, it is skewed.

So the correct answer is:

B. Unimodal-Skewed ..
