A stemplot can be skewed to the right or left depending on the distribution of the data. If the stem (the left part) has fewer values and the leaves (the right part) extend further out, it indicates a right skew. Conversely, if the leaves are concentrated on the left and the stem has more values, it shows a left skew. Analyzing the distribution of the leaves in relation to the stem helps determine the skewness.
To determine if the data in a line plot is skewed left, right, or not skewed, you would need to observe the distribution of the data points. If the tail on the left side is longer or fatter, it is left-skewed; if the tail on the right side is longer or fatter, it is right-skewed. If the data points are evenly distributed around a central value, it is not skewed. Without seeing the actual plot, I can't provide a definitive answer.
Symmetric
A skewed distribution typically has one tail that is longer or fatter than the other. In a right-skewed distribution, the tail on the right side is longer, while in a left-skewed distribution, the left tail is longer. Therefore, a skewed distribution has one dominant tail, but it can be characterized by its direction (right or left).
on the left and when it is skewed left it is on the right
A distribution or set of observations is said to be skewed left or negatively skewed if it has a longer "tail" of numbers on the left. The mass of the distribution is more towards the right of the figure rather than the middle.
A distribution or set of observations is said to be skewed right or positively skewed if it has a longer "tail" of numbers on the right. The mass of the distribution is more towards the left of the figure rather than the middle.
A positively skewed or right skewed distribution means that the mean of the data falls to the right of the median. Picturewise, most of the frequency would occur to the left of the graph.
False. It can be skewed to the left or right or be symmetrical.
No, a distribution is considered negatively skewed if the left tail is longer or fatter than the right tail. In this case, the bulk of the data is concentrated on the right side, with a longer tail extending to the left. A positively skewed distribution, on the other hand, has a longer right tail.
When a set of votes has been skewed it means that either the mean is higher than the median or lower. If it is higher the vote is said to be skewed to the right and when lower it is skewed to the left.
True
If it is very highly skewed then the mode is best.
