<h3>Answer: B. Graph is nearly symmetrical</h3>
Explanation:
Given information:
- A number line going from 2 to 11.
- 0 dots are above 2.
- 0 dots are above 3.
- 1 dot is above 4.
- 2 dots are above 5.
- 4 dots are above 6.
- 4 dots are above 7.
- 3 dots are above 8.
- 2 dots are above 9.
- 2 dots are above 10.
- 0 dots are above 11.
From that we can see the data set is {4,5,5,6,6,6,6,7,7,7,7,8,8,8,9,9,10,10} which produces the dot plot you see in the image attachment below.
It's a bit tricky to see, but the graph is nearly symmetrical. If we were to remove the blue points in the dot plot I provided, then we'll get a perfectly symmetrical distribution. Symmetrical means one half is a mirror copy of the the other half. The center line of a symmetrical distribution is both the mean and median.
