Hello,

Your answer would be right side of the graph

Please mark as brainiest

The peak in the data would likely be the right side of the graph.

The distribution of a data set when displayed on a dot plot is said to be skewed left (left skewed) when most of the data appear on the right side of the graph. This means, the highest scores are on the right while the lowest values of the variable are on the left side of the graph (in order words, tapers towards the left of the graph). See the image labelled A in the attachment below.

Also, for a data set distribution that is skewed right (right skewed), most of the data appear on the left side of the graph. It will have a tail tapering to the right. See the image labelled A in the attachment below.

  • For  a data distribution that is skewed to the left, the peak in the data would most likely be at the right side of the graph.
  • For  a data distribution that is skewed to the right, the peak in the data would most likely be at the left side of the graph.

Therefore, for data set that ranges between 50 and 90, and the distribution is skewed left, the peak in the data would be to the right of the graph.
