False. Consider the data set { 1, 2, 3, 4}. The median is not a member of the set.

false

OpenStudy (anonymous):

In large data sets (1,000 or more values), the mean is always one of the data values.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The median is the middle number of the data once the set has been put in order. If there are 2 middle numbers, you find the average of those numbers. The average is not always one of the listed data points. Examples: 1, 4, 7, 2, 8, 4, 9, 3-----> 1,2,3, 4,4,7,8,9. There are 8 numbers. The middle number is the average of 4 & 4. The median is 4 because 4 + 4 is 8 & 8/2 = 4. 4 is one of the listed data points 1,4,2,8,3,9,2,7--------> 1,2,2,3,4,7,8,9. There are 8 numbers. The middle number is the average of 3 & 4. (3.5) 3.5 is not one of the listed data points.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so false?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, False: Coz the median is the middle number in a group of data if there is no "middle" number ad the two middle numbers together and then divide by 2 example: 1,2,3,4 2+3=5 5 divided by 2 is equal to 2.5 2.5 is your median Sometimes, The median of a data set is one of the data values.
