Answer:

A. The Bulldogs' distribution is symmetric, but the Wolverines'

distribution is negatively skewed

Step-by-step explanation:

The box plot showing scores for the Bulldogs basketball team has the median shown by a vertical line dividing the box into 2 equal halves. Also, both whiskers on either sides are relatively equal. This shows that the data set for bulldogs is symmetric.

On the other hand, the box plot for wolverine shows the median more closer to the upper quartile, and also the whisker to the right if the box is longer. These show that the data set for team wolverine is negatively skewed.
