1 answer

To accurately determine the shape of Ms. Mala's Exam 1 scores based on the histogram, you would generally look for specific features:

  • Skewed Right: If the tail of the histogram extends more to the right (higher scores) and there are more lower scores clustered toward the left.
  • Skewed Left: If the tail extends more to the left (lower scores), with more higher scores clustered toward the right.
  • Symmetric: If both sides of the histogram around a central point are mirror images of each other.
  • Neither: If it does not fit any of the previous categories.

Without the actual histogram, I can't provide a direct answer. However, you can analyze the histogram using these guidelines to select the correct description of the Exam 1 scores. If you have access to it, simply observe the distribution of the data as suggested.
