Question

find the median
-9,-3.1,4,5,10.2

Answer 1

-9 and 10.2 are the extrema, so
10.2-4=6.2
9-4=5
10.2-3.1=7.1
9-3.1=6.9
looks like 4 is the median

Answer 2

4 it is; but i got no idea what that other stuff is :)

Answer 3

wait, do I remember the definition of "median"
I was trying to minimize the distance from the extrema by trying the difference in the absolute value of the extrema minus 4 or -3.1, the two likely candidates

Answer 4

median, the grassy spot in the middle of the road

Answer 6

yes. 4 is the median because you have listed the numbers from lowest to highest. Next, choose the number that is in the middle. 4 is your answer. For additional help, visit my website at http://tmtutoringservices.com
