Answer:
Answer C: The distribution for town A is positively skewed, and for town B is symmetric.
Explanation:
Notice that for town A the third quartile is at a longer distance from the mean (to the right) than the first quartile (shorter distance to the left), and also, the maximum value (55) is way to the right of the mean (20), compared to the minimum value (10) to the left. This distribution is therefore skewed to the right (positively skewed).The distribution for town B on the other hand looks absolutely symmetric from the mean (30) to the right (55) and to the left (5).
