I agree, positively skewed makes the most sense.

Wait, is "inversely skewed" even a real term?

Definitely not symmetric, that's for sure.

Not so sure about that, could be negatively skewed too!

I feel like I might be overthinking this. I remember that inversely skewed isn't a standard term, so I would rule out option D right away.

I'm a bit confused about the terms. I remember negatively skewed means the tail is on the left, but I can't visualize it here.

I practiced a similar question last week, and I think symmetric means the data is evenly distributed. So, I might lean towards option B.

I think the data looks positively skewed, but I'm not entirely sure. I remember something about the tail being longer on one side.

The distribution looks a bit asymmetric, but I'm not confident enough to say it's positively or negatively skewed. I'll review my notes on skewness and try to reason this through step-by-step.

This is tricky. The histogram doesn't look perfectly symmetric, but I'm not sure if it's enough to call it skewed. I might have to do some calculations to be sure. Better not to guess on this one.

Okay, let me visualize this. If the data is skewed, the mean will be pulled in the direction of the skew. So I need to look at the relative positions of the mean, median, and mode to determine the skewness. I think I've got this!

Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. The distribution looks a bit lopsided, but I can't quite tell if it's positively or negatively skewed. I'll have to think this through carefully.

This looks straightforward - the data is clearly skewed to the right, so I'll go with A. Positively skewed.

If this data was any more positively skewed, it would be doing a handstand. Option A all the way!

Positively skewed for sure, that data is all bunched up on the left side.

Inversely skewed? What kind of sorcery is that? I'm sticking with C - negatively skewed.

Nah, this is definitely symmetric. The distribution is perfectly bell-shaped.
