Question:hard

Consider the following statements:
(A). In symmetrical distribution mean, median and mode coincide
(B). The normal distribution has a Pearson's Coefficient (\(\beta_2\)) value equal to zero
(C). If Pearson's Coefficient (\(\beta_2\)) is less than 3, the distribution is said to be leptokurtic
(D). For a positive skewed distribution mean \(>\) median
(E). Skewness and kurtosis are measures of dispersion
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Show Hint

Associate "Platykurtic" with "flat like a plate" (\(\beta_2 < 3\)), "Leptokurtic" with "leaping high" (\(\beta_2 > 3\)), and "Mesokurtic" with "middle/normal" (\(\beta_2 = 3\)). This visual association helps avoid confusion during exams.
  • (A) only.
  • (A) and (D) only.
  • (B), (C) and (E) only.
  • (A), (B), (C) and (D) only.
