Question

question 2 1 pts sixty students in a chemistry course are given a surprise pop quiz that is worth 50 points. when the instructor reviews the quiz scores after class, she notices that most students scored between 5 and 15 points, with only six students earning scores of 40 points or higher. this tells us that the distribution is symmetric because the scores appear to be balanced around the center. skewed to the left because most students had lower quiz scores. bimodal because there is a cluster of smaller scores and a few higher scores, and this suggests two separate peaks. skewed to the right because only a small number of students had high quiz scores. uniform because every score range is equally represented.

Explanation:

In a right - skewed distribution, the tail of the distribution extends to the right. Here, most students have scores in the lower range (5 - 15 points) and only a few have high scores (40 points or higher), so the tail of the distribution of scores is on the right side.

Answer:

skewed to the right because only a small number of students had high quiz scores
