A manager for Marko Manufacturing, Inc. has recently been hearing some complaints that women are being paid less than men for the same type of work in one of their manufacturing plants. The box plots shown below represent the annual salaries for all salaried workers in that facility (40 men and 34 women).
 
   


  What can you say about the shape of the distributions given the accompanying box plots?

They both appear to be slightly skewed to the right (both have a mean > median). The total variation seems to be close for both distributions (with one outlier for the male salaries), but there seems to be more variation in the middle 50 for the women than for the men. There seem to be more men's salaries clustered more closely around the mean than for the women.
