  Statistics Through Applications, Chapter 3.1, Problem 3.10E , additional homework tip 2

The based on looking at the graph “number of letters in the word” the graph seems to be the right tailed graph as the tail is towards the right side. The approximated value of mean is approx. 4 and the median will be around 3 as it is a right tailed graph in which the median is smaller than mean.

The graph of “Last digit of cell phone” is approximately uniform distribution and the mean and median of the graph seems approximately 5.
