Answer:

The median is the best measure of center for distributions C and D.

Step-by-step explanation:

The <u>median</u> is the best measure of center for skewed distributions or distributions with outliers because it is a <u><em>robust</em></u> statistic, meaning that outliers and skewed data have <em>little effect </em>on the median.

Meanwhile, the <u>mean</u> is a good measure of center for symmetric distributions since it is <u><em>non-robust</em></u>.

Answer A has a roughly symmetric distribution, and answer B has a uniform distribution.

Answer C has a left-skewed distribution, and answer D seems to have a right-skewed distribution (since the right tail is longer than the left tail).

Therefore, the <u>median</u> would be the <u><em>best measure of center</em></u> for choices C and D.
