Consider the following dot plot. Of the following statements, which two characteristics of this dot plot make the median a better choice than the mean to summarize the center of the distribution?

A dot plot with an axis marked from 0 to 10 at increments of 1 is shown. Plot shows 8 dots at 0, 7 dots at 1, 5 dots at 2, 4 dots at 3, 2 dots at 4, and 1 dot at 10.

The mean is equal to the median and the data are symmetric.
The peak is equal to the median and the data are skewed.
The data are skewed and there is an outlier.
The data are symmetric and there is an outlier.
