To determine the shape of the data, I would need to see the distribution or a description of it (e.g., a histogram, stem-and-leaf plot, or summary statistics). However, I can help you understand the terms:
- **Symmetric**: The data is evenly distributed around the center; the left and right sides of the graph mirror each other.
- **Skewed Left (Negatively Skewed)**: The tail on the left side of the distribution is longer or fatter than the right side; most data points are on the higher end.
- **Skewed Right (Positively Skewed)**: The tail on the right side is longer or fatter; most data points are on the lower end.
- **Normal**: The data follows a bell-shaped curve, which is a specific type of symmetric distribution.
If you can provide more information or context about the data you're evaluating, I can help you identify its shape more accurately.
