A back-to-back stem-and-leaf plot showing the points scored by each player on two different basketball teams is shown below. What is the median for the blue team.
9,6,2,8,4,3,3
There is no stem-and-leaf plot shown, so we cannot determine the median for the blue team.
To find the median for the blue team, we first need to arrange the data in ascending order:
2, 3, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9
The median is the middle value in a set of data. In this case, since the data set has an odd number of values (7 in total), the median is the value at the (n + 1) / 2 position, where n is the total number of values.
In this case, the median is the value at the (7 + 1) / 2 = 8 / 2 = 4th position in the sorted data set.
Therefore, the median for the blue team is 4.
