Question

What is the shape of the following distribution?

{9, 10, 10, 11, 11, 12, 12, 13, 13, 13, 14, 14, 14, 14, 15, 15, 15, 15, 16, 16, 16, 16, 17, 17, 17, 17, 18, 19, 20]

A.negative skew
B.postive skew
C.symmetric
D.asymmetric with no skew
E.none of the above

Answer 1

Answer: C). symmetric

Explanation:

Answer 2

we are given the data from 9 to 20. we can plot the data in bar graph. The mean of the data is 15. in this case, we plot the number in x and y in terms of frequency. We can see that the plot is evenly distributed at 15 and then also at the extremes. Hence the answer to this problem is C. symmetric
