Answer 1

a) Ages of people at a little league game should be Uniform since we would expect the same age group who are interested to come and watch the game.

b) Number of siblings of people in a class should be bimodal because the distribution can be as follows: 2,3,4,3,2,0, and so on(the numbers represents the number of siblings of students in the class) and it can very well have two modes(the number which occurs with the highest frequency)

c) Pulse rates of college age males Should be uniodal since we would expect a range of similar rates for the similar demographic group of students and there should be one rate(since most of the students would be expected to be healthy) which occurs the most.

d) this distribution would be Uniform (since by the law of large numbers) we know that the number of times each face of a die shows in 100 times should be approximately 100/6 ie it is approximately the same for every number, so it would be Uniform.
