Question

Here's a box plot that summarizes the mass of each Clark Cruiser football player.
A horizontal box plot is labeled, Mass (kilograms), and marked from 50 to 80 in increments of 1. A left whisker extends from 54 to 67. The box extends from 67 to 73 and is divided into 2 parts by a vertical line segment at 70. The right whisker extends from 73 to 76. All values estimated.
$$50$$
$$53$$
$$56$$
$$59$$
$$62$$
$$65$$
$$68$$
$$71$$
$$74$$
$$77$$
$$80$$
Which of these best describes the shape of the distribution?
Choose 1 answer:
A
Approximately symmetric
B
Not symmetric

GPT-5 mini · Accepted Answer

B — Not symmetric.

The left whisker is much longer than the right whisker (more spread to the lower masses), so the distribution is skewed rather than approximately symmetric.
