Of the following statements, which two characteristics of this dot plot make the median a better choice than the mean to summarize the center of the distribution?

The mean is equal to the median and the data are symmetric. The peak is equal to the median and the data are skewed. The data are symmetric and there are outliers. The data are skewed and there are outliers.

Answer 2

Answer:

D) The data are skewed and there are outliers.

Step-by-step explanation:

They don’t have the same mean (8) and median (9).

The peak is not equal to the median.

The data is not symmetrical.

That just leaves D, which is correct.  The data is skewed to the right and has outliers at 0.
