Key Points Positively Skewed Distribution:

A positively skewed distribution, also known as a right-skewed distribution, is a type of distribution where most values are concentrated on the left tail and the right tail is longer.

Important Points In a positive skewed distribution, the study general relationship between the measures of central tendency can be expressed as follows:

 Mean > Median > Mode

Q3 - Median > Median - Q1

Passage: The phenomenal rise of social media (SM) platforms such as Facebook, Twitter and others is proving to be a double-edged sword in the functioning of democracies. On the one hand, it has democratized access to information. On the other hand, it has concentrated power over that information with a handful of private companies, their billionaire owners, and certain ideologically committed activist groups. Statements: (A) Social media allow the democratisation of information and broader communication. (B) Social media bypass traditional curators of information like Journalists and PIB. (C) Social media reduce the cost of creating and disseminating information. Question: Which of the above statements weakens the argument that social media is desirable?
