Describe quantitative one-variable graphical representations of summary statistics based on the relationship of the mean and the median.

• If a distribution is relatively symmetric, then the values of the mean and median are relatively close to each other. If a distribution is skewed right, then the value of the mean is usually larger than the median. If the distribution is skewed left, then the value of the mean is usually smaller than the median.
