question 7 (1 point) select all the distribution shapes for which the mean and median must be about the same. a bell - shaped b uniform c skewed d bimodal e symmetric
In a bell - shaped (normal) distribution, the data is symmetrically distributed around the mean, so mean = median. In a uniform distribution, the data is evenly spread, and the mean and median are also equal. In a symmetric distribution, by definition, the mean and median are about the same. Skewed distributions pull the mean in the direction of the skew, making it different from the median. Bimodal distributions can be symmetric or skewed and do not necessarily have equal mean and median.
