Question

a hobby club compiles data on the time its members spend on their projects each week. the mean time is 8, while the median is 8.1. would you expect this data set to be skewed to the right, skewed to the left, or approximately symmetric? we would expect the data set to be select

Explanation:

In a left - skewed distribution, the mean is less than the median. In a right - skewed distribution, the mean is greater than the median. In a symmetric distribution, the mean and median are approximately equal. Here, the mean (8) is less than the median (8.1), so it's left - skewed.

Answer:

skewed to the left
