The dot plot data given is skewed to the right .

A data is said to be right skewed if it has majority of it's towards the right of the graph or distribution. This means that a right skewed data will have a long tail at the left side of the graph.

From the graph given, the majority of the data is concentrated towards the right of the graph and the tail of the graph is to the left of the distribution.

Hence, the data is right skewed.
