Chapter 2: Q.2.133 (page 80)

We have drawn a smooth curve that represents a distribution,

a. Identify the shape of the distirbution with regard to modality.

b. Identify the shape of the distribution with regard to symmetry (or non symmetry)

c . If the distribution is unimodal and non symmetric, classify it as either right skewed or left skewed.

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) The shape of the graph is unimodal

(b) The shape of the graph is symmetric

(c) The skewness of the graph is cannot be determined.

Step by step solution

01

Part(a) Step 1 : Given Information 

The given graph is:

we have to Identify the shape of the distirbution with regard to modality.

02

Part (a) Step 2 : Explanation 

A unimodal distribution is defined by a single distinct peak or most frequent value. After reaching a single peak, the numbers rise, then decline. In the graph, there is only one peak.

03

Part (b) Step 1: Given Information 

The given graph is :

we have to Identify the shape of the distribution with regard to symmetry (or non symmetry)

04

Part (b) Step 2: Explanation 

When a distribution's shape is broken into two sections, one of them is the mirror image of the other, the distribution is said to be symmetric. The graph can be split into two equal halves, one of which is a mirror image of the other.

05

Part (c) Step 1: Given Information 

The given graph is:

We have to classify as either right skewed or left skewed If the distribution is unimodal and non symmetric.

06

Part(c) Step 2: Explanation 

The distribution is symmetric and unimodal.

As a result, the graph's skewness cannot be established.

PCBs and Pelicans. Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), industrial pollutants, are known to be carcinogens and a great danger to natural ecosystems. As a result of several studies, PCB production was banned in the United States in 1979 and by the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants in 2001. One study, published in 1972 by R. W. Risebrough, is titled "Effects of Environmental Pollutants Upon Animals Other Than Man" (Proceedings of the 6ed Berkeley Symposium on Mathematics and Statistics, VI, University of California Press, pp. 443-463). In that study, 60 Anacapa pelican eggs were collected and measured for their shell thickness, in millimeters (mm), and concentration of PCBs, in parts per million (ppm). Following is a relative-frequency histogram of the PCB concentration data.

Stays in Europe and the Mediterranean. The Bureau of Economic Analysis gathers information on the length of stay in Europe and the Mediterranean by U.S. travelers. Data are published in the Survey of Current Bussiness. The following stem-and-leaf diagram portrays the length of stay, in days, of a sample of 36 U.S. residents who traveled to Europe and the Mediterranean last year.
