Chapter 3, Problem 48(choose chapter or problem)
A measure to determine the skewness of a distribution is called the Pearson coefficient of skewness. The formula is The values of the coefficient usually range from 3 to 3. When the distribution is symmetric, the coefficient is zero; when the distribution is positively skewed, it is positive; and when the distribution is negatively skewed, it is negative. Using the formula, find the coefficient of skewness for each distribution, and describe the shape of the distribution. a. Mean 10, median 8, standard deviation 3. b. Mean 42, median 45, standard deviation 4. c. Mean 18.6, median 18.6, standard deviation 1.5. d. Mean 98, median 97.6, standard deviation 4. 49. All val
