Choose one of the options: A. skewed right B. symmetrical C. skewed left In general, when the probability of success p is close to 1, would you say that the graph is skewed to the right or to the left? What about when p is close to 0? Choose one of the options: A. When p is close to 1 it will be skewed right. When p is close to 0 it will be skewed left. B. The graph will be skewed right when p is close to 1 and when p is close to 0. C. When p is close to 1 it will be skewed left. When p is close to 0 it will be skewed right. D. The graph will be skewed left when p is close to 1 and when p is close to 0.

Question

The figures below show histograms of several binomial distributions with n = 6 trials

In general, when the probability of success p is close to 0.5, would you say that the graph is more symmetrical or more skewed? Choose one of the options:
A. skewed right
B. symmetrical
C. skewed left

In general, when the probability of success p is close to 1, would you say that the graph is skewed to the right or to the left? What about when p is close to 0? Choose one of the options:

A. When p is close to 1 it will be skewed right. When p is close to 0 it will be skewed left.

B. The graph will be skewed right when p is close to 1 and when p is close to 0.

C. When p is close to 1 it will be skewed left. When p is close to 0 it will be skewed right.

D. The graph will be skewed left when p is close to 1 and when p is close to 0.
