I want that you give me an example that.

[If the sample size is larger and larger] the mean gets pulled in the direction of the skewness. So your distribution of incomes would be right skewed, or positively skewed.

Do not forget (or maliciously trying to direct me to a different problem).


Remembering:

The first sample is the wages of 1 million of Americans (USA) chosen at random . The second of all of them.


Comment:

It was marvellous: if the wages in a certain State was very poor of high wages, we add the wages of other State, and other, and other, etc.
At the end 99% earned as Financial Analysts, for instance, (30$ per hour)!

Is it clear, clear?
