Given the box plot, will the mean or the median provide a better description of the center?
The mean, because the data distribution is symmetrical
The mean, because the data distribution is skewed to the left
The median, because the data distribution is skewed to the left
The median, because the data distribution is skewed to the right

it is when the mean and median are equal and in plots they are mirrored so this is symmetrical
OpenStudy (anonymous):

skewness is a measure of the symmetrical of probability distribution of real-valued rando/?? variable about its mean. is this true?
