of people of the same sex and similar ages follow a Normal distribution reasonably closely. Weights, on the other hand, are not Normally distributed. The weights of women aged 20–29 in the United States have mean 161.9 pounds and median 149.4 pounds. The first and third quartiles are 126.3 pounds and 181.2 pounds, respectively. What can you say about the shape of the weight distribution? Why?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Right-skewed

Step-by-step explanation:

The shape of the weight distributed is skewed, because the mean and the median are not equal.

Moreover, the distribution is right-skewed because the mean is greater than the median and because the mean is influenced by the tail of large values.
