Question

Identify the shape of the​ distribution, and​ (b) determine the​ five-number summary. Assume that each number in the​ five-number summary is an integer.
0
10
20



A horizontal boxplot is above a number line from 0 to 20 in increments of 1 and consists of a box extending from 14 to 18 with a vertical line segment through the box at 16 and two horizontal line segments extending from the left and right sides of the box to 0 and 20, respectively.

Part 1
a. Choose the correct answer below for the shape of the distribution.
A.
The distribution is skewed right.
B.
The distribution is skewed left.
C.
The distribution is roughly symmetric.
D.
The shape of the distribution cannot be determined from the boxplot.

Answer 1

1. The shape of the distribution is: B. skewed left.

2. he five-number summary is: 0, 14, 17, 18, 20.

What is Left-skewed Distribution?

If the data distribution that is represented by a box plot is left-skew (negatively skewed), the median will appear closer to the third quartile (Q3) of the box plot. The median is at the point where a vertical line divides the box into two.

Part 1: The box plot shows that the median is close to the third quartile, therefore, the shape of the distribution is described as: B. skewed left.

Part 2: The five-number summary include:

Min. value = 0

Q1 = 14

Median = 17

Q3 = 18

Max. value = 20.
