Problem

A histogram has counts \(1\), \(3\), \(6\), \(6\), \(3\), and \(1\) across intervals \(0\text{--}9\) through \(50\text{--}59~\text{minutes}\). Describe the distribution's shape and concentration.

Big Picture

What this problem is really about

Describe the whole histogram by checking two features separately. Pair bars equally far from the center to test whether the two sides balance, then locate the tallest bars to see where the data concentrate. This uses the complete frequency pattern instead of naming a shape from only the rising or falling half.
