A comic-strip writer churns out a different number of comic strips each day. For 16 days, the writer logged the number of comic
strips written each day (sorted low to high): {1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 6, 7}. What type of skew can be observed in this distribution?
positive skew
negative skew
zero skew
skew cannot be observed
positive skew
negative skew
zero skew
skew cannot be observed
1 answer:
First we need to graph the given values.
there are total 16 data so x-value can be taken as 1,2,3,...,16
given values will be assigned as y-values as shown in attached table.
Now we just graph those points to see the type of skew.
From graph we see that points are very close and almost in the shape of a line. Lines seems to be moving upward when going to the right side.
Hence correct answer will be "positive skew".

Answer:
43cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
let's first consider the area of a square.
the area is L² which means all sides are equal so we take the length times the breadth which is both equal because like we said all sides are equal.
so to find the side of the square using the area, we take the square root of both of the area.
and also
so we have the height of the triangle as 5cm and the base is 4.2cm.
now, from the triangle, since we have two sides and it's a right-angled, we can use Pythagoras' formula.
so the side 6.53cm is also the same side as the largest triangle. Since it's a square, all sides are equal. So we find the area of the largest triangle by using the formula
Area = L²
Area = 6.53²
Area = 42.6cm
the nearest cm square
Area = 43cm²
