... Y density must be less for the right interval to preserve equal areas. The resulting cutveS are shown on the vertical axis and are labelled at their means. Now let's reverse our thinking and imagine Y as original data. The distnbution of Y is seen to be skewed with mean far to the right of the media ...

You wish to see if the mean time is changed by vigorous exercise, so you have a group of nine college students exercise vigorously for 30 minutes and then complete the maze. You compute the average time J that it takes these students ...
