Sometimes data do not follow a normal distribution and are pulled toward the tails of the curve. When this occurs, it is referre
d to as having a skewed distribution. Because the mean is sensitive to extreme values or outliers, it gravitates in the direction of the extreme values thus making a long tail when a distribution is skewed. When the tail is pulled toward the right side, it is called a _______.a. Negatively skewed distribution b. Positively skewed distribution
c. Bimodal distribution
d. Normal distribution
When the tail is pulled toward the right side, it is called a positively skewed distribution
Step-by-step explanation:
When the tail is pulled toward the right side, it is called a positively skewed distribution; when the tail is pulled toward the left side of the curve it is called a negatively skewed distribution (Watzlaf 2016, 361-362).
Generally the right side of a function is reserved for positive variables and the left side is used to represent negative variables, therefore when a function is pulled to the right is considered to be Positively skewed
The dashed line is because the sign is greater than to be a solid line it has to be equal to or greater than and to the shading means any point on there works for the equation easiest way to test where you should shade is by plugging into the equation the point (0,0)
