2. A scientist recorded the duration of the eruptions of the Old Faithful geyser in Yellowstone National Park that occurred during a one-month time period. The histogram below shows the distribution of the duration, in seconds, of the eruptions. 100- 50+ 75 100 125 150 175 200 225 250 275 300 325 Duration (seconds) Based on the histogram, which of the following is the best description of the distribution? (A) The distribution is uniform, is centered at about 200 seconds, and has a range of at most 250 seconds. (B) The distribution is skewed to the left, is centered at about 125 seconds, and has a range of at most 250 seconds. (C) The distribution is skewed to the right, is centered at about 260 seconds, and has a range of at most 250 seconds. (D) The distribution displays two clusters, has a range of at most 200 seconds, and includes outliers below 75 seconds and above 325 seconds. (E) The distribution displays two clusters, with one cluster centered at about 125 seconds and the other centered at about 260 seconds, and has a range of at most 250 seconds. Number of Eruptions
