A symmetric distribution will likely have a mean that is smaller than the median since the median is more resistant to extreme O c. A distribution that is skewed left will likely have a mean that is smaller than the median since the extreme values in the tail O D. There is no way to predict the relationship between the mean and median based on the shape of the distribution. tend to pull the mean to the right. values than the mean. tend to pull the mean to the left.
