The mean of a distribution is 217, while the median is 291. which of these statements is true about the distribution? a.) it's symmetrical b.) it is positively skewed c.) it is negatively skewed d.) it is the same throughout

Given that the mean distribution is 217, and the median is 291. This follows that given 217<291, it implies that most of the values lie to the left of the center of the distribution, hence the distribution will be positively skewed. 
Hence,
the answer is:
b.) it is positively skewed 

The slope of the function is 0.5.
