A large corporation has thousands of employees. The distribution of annual salaries for the employees is skewed to the right, with a mean of $68,000 and a standard deviation of $18,000. Because business has been good this year, the CEO of the company decides that every employee will receive a $5000 bonus. Let X be the current annual salary of a randomly selected employee before the bonus and Y be the employee’s salary after the bonus.

Describe the shape of the probability distribution of Y.
