The data set would most likely be skewed right. The majority of employees would be paid an average amount, and only a few high-ranking employees would be paid significantly higher amounts. This data would result in a longer tail on the right with the majority of the data points on the left. In general, real-world situations are not symmetrical. This often occurs when one end of the range is bound by limits. In this case, the left side is bound by the minimum wage that must be paid to workers. On the right side, the president and other executives in the company probably don’t have a limit on their salaries.
Their is a higher chance that it is skewed right because new workers will be coming in while long term workers will be retiring meaning that more workers will be toward the left side of the graph making anyone who has worked longer for the company possible outliers, which drags the graph to the right making it skewed right
