Question

If the data distribution is skewed to the left, it means:

• A. More scores have low values than have high values
• B. Fewer scores have low values than have high values
• C. Fewer scores have high values than have low values
• D. More scores have high values than have low values
• E.

Hint:

In a left-skewed distribution, the mean is typically less than the median due to the influence of extreme low values.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

In a left-skewed (negatively skewed) distribution: 1. The tail of the distribution extends to the left. 2. This indicates that most of the data points are concentrated at higher values, while fewer data points are at lower values.
Thus, the correct answer is (B) Fewer scores have low values than have high values.
