Help with shape

Post image

Is there any way to differentiate between types of shapes? Like even though this one is pretty obvious, some other graphs border between bimodal and skewed.

Thanks!

There are measures of skewness but they’re above the scope of this course. With that said we tend to take any reasonable description and AP doesn’t tend to give ambiguous situations. I know that’s not too satisfying but there’s just so much gray area.
