The correct answer is B. It means that the ages of people stopped by police that are older than the 50th percentile are much more spread out than the ages of people stopped by police that are younger than the 50th percentile.<br /><br />In a right-skewed distribution, the tail on the right side (representing older ages in this context) is longer or more spread out than the left side, indicating that there is more variability in the ages above the median (50th percentile).
