What is the median of the data set: 520, 471, 516, 485, 500, 528?
@iloveyou;*
the median is the middle term is a set of data, eg if the data was 7, 393, 3, -6, 88, 3, 75, 5, 5, 5, 0, 1, 4, first we sorting the data into order ... -6, 0, 1, 3, 3, 4, 5, 5, 5, 7, 75, 88, 393, | the median is now in the middle: 5
im sorry i suck at math :/ but im good for finding definitions lol
ohh yea thats right ok thank you
What is the median of the data set: 520, 471, 516, 485, 500, 528? this one dont have a middle
again, arange them into order first
because there is an even number of elements this time, there will be two 'middle' terms: say a and b then median is now (a + b) / 2
what do you think my answer is
what does the data look like when arranged into order?
@UnkleRhaukus 471,485,500,516,520,528
@UnkleRhaukus
471, 485, 500, 516, 520, 528 | | a b median = (a + b) / 2 = (500+516) / 2 =
is it 501
= (500+516) / 2 = (2*500+16) / 2 = 500 + 16/2 =
so 258
= 500 + 16/2 = 500 + 2*8/2 = 500 + 8 =
im not sure
what number is halfway between 500 and 516?
50
