B)a positively skewed distribution
C)a two-peaked (bimodal)distribution
D)a one-peaked unsymmetrical distribution

In a normal distribution, the mode, mean, and median are all equal because the data is symmetrically distributed around the central tendency. This means that if we draw a bell curve, the highest point (mode) will coincide with the midpoint (median) and the average value (mean). In other types of distributions, such as positively skewed or bimodal distributions, the central tendency measures can differ and provide different information about the data. Therefore, A) is the best choice since it is the only one where all three measures coincide.
