Solve the problem.
-Data were reported for household size (number of people in household)in a small community. The size distribution is given in the table. Obtain a relative-frequency histogram for these data and Determine whether the household sizes are approximately normally distributed. $\begin{array}{c|c}
\begin{array}{c}
\text { Size } \
\text { (\# of people) }
\end{array} & \text { Frequency } \
\hline \text { 1-under 2 } & 4 \
\text { 2-under 3 } & 33 \
\text { 3-under 4 } & 30 \
\text { 4-under 5 } & 12 \
\text { 5-under 6 } & 6 \
\text { 6-under 7 } & 3
\end{array}$

A)No. The distribution is right-skewed.
B)No. The distribution has outliers.
C)Yes. The distribution is bell-shaped.
D)No. The distribution is left-skewed.

The distribution is right-skewed because the frequency decreases as the number of people in the household increases, indicating that most households have fewer people and fewer households have a larger number of people. This pattern does not match the symmetric bell shape of a normal distribution.
