Question

If the shape of the distribution of the weights of russet potatoes tends to be symmetrical, what must also be true about the distribution? A. mean < median B. The distribution is skewed left. C. mean ≈ median D. The distribution is skewed right.

Answer 1

the mean equals the median.

Explanation:

Answer 2

Option C. mean ≈ median

Explanation:

The distribution curve is given as a normal "bell-shaped"curve. In this way, it means that there is a symmetry to the curve. Thus, the left and right side of the curve are equally distributed.

Hence, the equal distribution means equal mean and equal median. Thus, the mean ≈ median.

Hence, option B is correct.
