Question

every year, an academy award is presented in the \best actress\ category. suppose you learn that when the distribution of the ages of all \best actress\ award winners was examined, it was observed that almost all of the \best actress\ recipients were young at the time they won the award (between the ages of 21 and 50 years, with a peak between 30 and 35 years), and only a very small number were older (with the oldest winner being jessica tandy, who received an academy award at the age of 80 years for her performance in \driving miss daisy\). we would describe the shape of a distribution in which most values are on the small side and only a few are on the larger side as being
skewed to the left.
skewed to the right.
inverted.
uniform.
symmetric.

Explanation:

In a right - skewed distribution, the tail of the distribution extends to the right (towards larger values). Here, most of the values (ages of best - actress winners) are on the small side and only a few are on the larger side, which is characteristic of a right - skewed distribution.

Answer:

B. skewed to the right
