Question

(a) which histogram is best described as unimodal?
histogram a histogram b histogram c
(b) which histogram is skewed to the right the most?
histogram a histogram b histogram c
(c) which histogram is the closest to being uniform?
histogram a histogram b histogram c
(d) which histogram is the closest to being symmetric?
histogram a histogram b histogram c

Explanation:

• (a) A unimodal histogram has one distinct peak. Histogram B has one prominent peak.
• (b) A right - skewed histogram has a longer tail on the right. Histogram C has the longest tail on the right.
• (c) A uniform histogram has bars of approximately equal height. Histogram A has bars that are more evenly distributed in height compared to B and C.
• (d) A symmetric histogram has a mirror - like shape on either side of the center. Histogram B has a shape that is closer to being symmetric compared to A and C.

Answer:
