Rich and poor households differ in ways that go beyond income. Here are histograms that display the distributions of household size (number of people) for low-income and high income households.36 Low-income households had annual incomes less than $15,000, and high income households had annual incomes of at least $100,000. Which of the following compares the shape of the distributions? (LT 1.5.3 #1)

• Both distributions are skewed to the right and single-peaked with low-income more strongly skewed.

• Both distributions are skewed to the left and single-peaked with low-income more strongly skewed.

• Both distributions are roughly symmetric and single-peaked.

• There is nothing to describe.
