Question

The following is the number of red dresses each student owned.

Answer 1

Answer:

From the given data:

$\large\begin{array}{| c | c | c |}\cline{1-3} \sf No.\:of\:red\:dresses & \sf Tally & \sf Frequency\\\cline{1-3} 1 & \sf llll & 4 \\\cline{1-3} 2 & \sf llll & 4 \\\cline{1-3} 3 & \sf llll & 4 \\\cline{1-3} 4 & \sf ll & 2 \\\cline{1-3} 5 & \sf ll & 2 \\\cline{1-3} 6 & \sf l & 1 \\\cline{1-3} 7 & \sf l & 1 \\\cline{1-3} 8 & \sf ll & 2 \\\cline{1-3} 9 & \sf l & 1 \\ \cline{1-3}\end{array}$

More than half of the students own the least number of red dresses, so the data is positively skewed (skewed to the right).

As the number of red dresses owned increases, the number of students owning this number of red dresses generally decreases.
