What is the values of the skewdness and kurtosis coefficient for the normal distribution 0 and 3 respectively?

No. Skewness is 0, but kurtosis is -3, not 3.No. Skewness is 0, but kurtosis is -3, not 3.No. Skewness is 0, but kurtosis is -3, not 3.No. Skewness is 0, but kurtosis is -3, not 3.


Please explain positive and negative skewness?

A positive skewness is when the value of mean is greater than the mode. that is, the curve is more skewed at the right hand side or the right tail is longer than the left tail. The negative skewness is when the mean is smaller than the mode, and in this case the curve is more skewed on the left hand side.


How do you calculate skewness?

Skewness is measured as the third standardised moment of the random variable. Skewness is the expected value of {[X - E(X)]/sd(X)}3 where sd(X) = sqrt(Variance of X)


Coefficient of skewness and formula?

3 (mean − median) / standard deviation.

If coefficient of skewness equals 0 then what would you say about the skewness of the distribution?

if coefficient of skewness is zero then distribution is symmetric or zero skewed.


What is the definition for skew in math terms?

The skewness of a random variable X is the third standardised moment of the distribution. If the mean of the distribution is m and the standard deviation is s, then the skewness, g1 = E[{(X - m)/s}3] where E is the expected value. Skewness is a measure of the degree to which data tend to be on one side of the mean or the other. A skewness of zero indicates symmetry. Positive skewness indicates there are more values that are below the mean but the the ones that are above the mean, although fewer, are substantially bigger. Negative skewness is defined analogously.
