Answer:

C. The data is skewed to the left and shows that she never scored fewer than 2 points or more than 12 points in a game.

Explanation:

In the given image that is representing the number of points that Shira scored, each basketball game so far this season we can observe that the data is skewed to the left.

Lets consider the definition of skewness of a data set:

A left-skewed distribution has a long left tail. Left-skewed distributions are also known as negatively-skewed distributions. That’s because there is a long tail in the negative direction on the number line. So in this case peak remains on the right side.

The number of points that Shira scored each basketball game so far this season is-example-1
