b.
dot plot image

c.
histogram image

d.
box plot image

Explanation:

Step1: Recall Skewness Definition

Positive skewness (right skew) means the tail on the right side is longer or the bulk of data is on the left, with a long right tail.

Step2: Analyze Each Option

• Option A: Symmetric (peaks in middle, tails balanced).
• Option B: Left - skewed (tail on left, bulk on right).
• Option C: Symmetric (bell - shaped, balanced tails).
• Option D: Box - plot shows right tail (whisker on right is longer, median closer to left), indicating positive skewness.

D
