Comment on the skewness for the data on starting salaries


  1. Comment on the skewness for the data on starting salaries: Plot a histogram and determine the skewness. (I know you can go into insert chart and select histogram. Do I just the select the entire starting salary column).
  2. Find the skewness coefficient.
  3. Find the mean, median, and mode for starting salaries and compare the three measures to determine skewness. (I've got the mean, median, and the mode)
  4. Finally, use Empirical Rule on the starting salaries and determine whether the salaries follow the Empirical Rule.

Starting Salary ($) 71,400 65,200 7,100 31,000 87,000 22,800 7,500 43,300 7,400 46,600 49,300 49,600 34,000 60,100 17,600 52,500 25,000 66,000 41,400 48,900 7,000 55,000 7,500 16,000 13,100
