Question
Choose the best answer to the following question. Explain your reasoning. The distribution of wages at a company is right-skewed with outliers at high values. Assuming you would like a high wage, would you hope that your wage was closer to the mean, median or mode? Choose the correct answer below 0 A. It should be closer to the median because the median is greater than the mean and mode when the distribution is right-skewed O B. It should be closer to the median because the median is always higher than the mean and mode. C. O D· OE. ° F. It should be closer to the mode because the mode is greater than the mean and median when the distribution is right-skewed. It should be closer to the mean because the mean is greater than the median and mode when the distribution is right-skewed. It should be closer to the mode because the mode is always higher than the mean and median. It should be closer to the mean because the mean is always higher than the median and mode.Explanation / Answer
Dear Student
Thank you for using Chegg !!
Option C is the correct answer
In a right skewed disctribution, Mode defined as data set appearing for the maximum number of times has the aximum valdue.
Median, defined as the middle value when the data set is arranged in scending or descending order, has value more than mean but less than mode.
Median, defined as average of all the values has the least value.
Hence Option C satsidfies all the conditions when checked.
