For each of the following, you will need to draw a sketch of a histogram (it can be a rough sketch) and explain your drawing. For each histogram sketch, consider the x-axis to be prices grouped by category, and consider the y-axis to be frequency. The prices can represent whatever type of item makes sense for your example. a. Sketch a histogram which shows a data set that is skewed to the left. Explain the features of your sketch which make it left-skewed. Describe an example of a type of data set which might have this shape. b. Sketch a histogram which shows a data set that is skewed to the right. Explain the features of your sketch which make it right-skewed. Describe an example of a type of data set which might have this shape. c. Sketch a histogram which shows a data set that is approximately symmetric. Explain the features of your sketch which make it symmetric. Describe an example of a type of data set which might have this shape.
