Provide an appropriate response.How does Q3 - Q2 compare to Q2 - Q1 for a distribution which is skewed to the right? for a distribution which is skewed to the left? for a uniform distribution? (The three quartiles of a data set from smallest to largest are denoted Q1, Q2, Q3).

What will be an ideal response?


For a distribution which is skewed to the right, Q3 - Q2 is greater than Q2 - Q1 .
For a distribution which is skewed to the left, Q3 - Q2 is smaller than Q2 - Q1 .
For a uniform distribution, Q3 - Q2 is equal to Q2 - Q1 .
