A distribution with a mean equal 60, a median equal to 65 and a mode equal to 70 is:

Answer 1

Negatively skewed. If you were to graph these data, the highest point (mode) would be to the right and the longer tail would be toward the left. The direction of the skew is the direction of the long tail. The mean will be in the long tail because it is most susceptible to outliers.

If the distribution were symmetrical, the mean, median, and mode would be approximately equal.
