Question

A car salesman sells cars with prices ranging from $5,000 to $45,000. The histogram shows the distribution of the numbers of cars he expects to sell over the next
10 years.

How would the shape of the distribution change if the salesman decides to also deal in cars priced under $5,000 and in cars priced from $45,000 to $50,000 and projects sales of 200 cars in each category?




The distribution will exhibit symmetry.




The distribution will exhibit a positive skew.




The distribution will exhibit a negative skew.




The distribution will be uniform throughout.

Answer 4

if you add the 0-5k at 200 cars, and the 45-50k at 200 cars...both are the same level as the one next to it, not changed

Answer 5

it sure does look symmetric for sure, putting a line down the tallest point, mirrored looking

Answer 6

the skewed graphs are not symmetric, so those cant be it, look at the graph shapes here in the introduction part

Answer 7

i am guessing uniform throughout may mean, unchanging, flat line at the same level

Answer 8

not sure, sound good?

Answer 9

i think is

-The distribution will exhibit symmetry.
