The Question is taken from Assignment X1
Question X1.11 (iii)
The skewness is required here:
We got here Mean = 0.20 and Median = 0.157427
It has been said that since Mean is to the right of the Median hence the curve is positively skewed.
My point is that to know the skewness we need to get the Mode (Apex point of curve) anyhow and if the Mean is right of Mode then we'll get the positively skewed curve or vice versa. But the in book's answer nowhere Mode is defined, then how then said it like the curve is positively skewed.
Please explain.
