Question

the letters a, b, and c are marked on the histogram. describe the shape of the data. then determine which is the mean, which is the median, and which is the mode. justify your answers. which description below best describes the shape of the distribution? skewed left skewed right uniform symmetric in this distribution, how is the mode determined? the mode is the data entry that has the highest frequency the mode cannot be identified. the mean, median, and mode are all equal. the mode is the data entry that has the lowest frequency. the mode is labeled

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze shape of histogram

The tail of the histogram extends to the right, so it is skewed right.

Step2: Recall mode definition

The mode is the data - entry with the highest frequency. In a histogram, it corresponds to the bar with the greatest height.

Answer:

Which description below best describes the shape of the distribution?

• Skewed right

In this distribution, how is the mode determined?

• A. The mode is the data entry that has the highest frequency

The mode is labeled A (since the bar corresponding to A has the highest frequency).
