Mr. Jordan is going to create a dot plot to display the number of days his first grade students have been absent from school during the past month.

What type of distribution should he expect for his data? Explain.

A skewed distribution because the majority of students will likely have few absences.

A symmetric distribution because for every student who misses more than the mode number of days, there will likely be a student who missed the same amount of days fewer than the mode.

A uniform distribution because about the same number of students will miss any given number of days.

A bimodal distribution because there is likely to be a large number of students who missed very few days and the same number of students who missed many days.
