Question

This dot plot shows the number of runs scored by the Yellow Jackets in their last 12 baseball games

Answer 1

Answer:

Symmetric

Step-by-step explanation: The median is 6 so if you look at the plot a lot of the dots match up except a few.

Answer 2

Solution:

So, in 12 games points scored by yellow jackets are,

2,3,5,5,6,6,6,6,7,7,7,9.

As, total observation in data set is even=12.So, median can be found by the formula,

Median $=\frac{(6th +7th)term}{2}\\\\=\frac{6+6}{2}\\\\=6$

Again , writing the points scored in each game

2,3,5,5,6,6,6,6,7,7,7,9

Finding first quartile and Second Quartile

$Q_{1}=\frac{5+5}{2}=5\\\\ Q_{2}=\frac{7+7}{2}=7$

Again , writing the points scored in each game

2,3,5,5,6,6,6,6,7,7,7,9

Difference between Points scored in each game and median is larger towards left of median and is also more in between first quartile and left of first quartile.

So we can conclude that , the number of points scored in each game  varies or alter towards left of median.

So, we can say that,graph is skewed left,  the tail to the left is much longer than tail to the right.→→→Option 3
