Question

question 4 (1 point) the dot plot shows the weight, in grams, of several different rocks. select all the terms that describe the shape of the distribution. 0.24 0.25 0.26 0.27 0.28 0.29 0.30 0.31 0.32 0.33 0.34 weight (grams) a symmetric b bell - shaped c uniform d skewed e bimodal

Explanation:

Step1: Check for symmetry

The distribution is not symmetric as the left - hand side and right - hand side do not mirror each other.

Step2: Check for bell - shaped

It is not bell - shaped as a bell - shaped distribution has a single peak and tapers off symmetrically on both sides, which is not the case here.

Step3: Check for uniform

In a uniform distribution, the data points are evenly spread across the range. Here, the data is not evenly spread, so it is not uniform.

Step4: Check for skewed

The distribution is not clearly skewed to the left or right as there is no long tail on either side.

Step5: Check for bimodal

There are two peaks (at 0.27 and 0.31), so the distribution is bimodal.

Answer:

e. bimodal
