Question

Which phrase accurately describes a distribution that's bell-shaped but not symmetric?

A.) a normal distribution
B.) a skewed distribution
C.) a linear distribution
D.) a quadratic distribution

Answer 1

Normal Distribution: any normal distribution is going to be bell shaped but NOT symmetric.

Answer 2

A normal distribution is projected as a bell shaped distribution with the area can be symmetrically divided into two. In this case, the problem says non-symmetric districution which would have to be a skewed distribution. This type of distribution has unequal areas of each side which can be left or right.
