What is the mean of the given distribution, and which type of skew does it exhibit? {4.5, 3, 1, 2, 4, 3, 6, 4.5, 4, 5, 2, 1, 3, 4, 3, 2} The mean of the distribution is , and it exhibits a skew. NextReset

Respuesta :

mean: add all numbers and divide by how many there are.                                  skew: does not intersect


(1 + 1 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4.5 + 4.5 + 5 + 6) / 16 =
52/16 = 3.25 <== the mean (average)

This exhibits a positive skew
