the week The low temperatures during onin January were 2° , −3° , −9° , −11° , 1° , −8° , and −9° . What was the median low temperature that week?(1 point) °
The median low temperature is the middle value when the temperatures are arranged in ascending order.
Arranging the temperatures in ascending order: -11°, -9°, -9°, -8°, -3°, 1°, 2°
Since there are 7 temperatures, the median will be the 4th temperature, which is -8°.
Therefore, the median low temperature that week was -8°.
The stem-and-leaf plot shows the ages of a group of friends. Find the median age. Stem Leaf 2 8 3 1 2 4 4 2 7 9 5 4 Key: 2|8=28 years
To find the median age from the stem-and-leaf plot, we need to first list all the ages in ascending order.
From the stem-and-leaf plot, the ages are:
28, 31, 32, 42, 47, 49
Arranging them in ascending order:
28, 31, 32, 42, 47, 49
Since there are 6 ages, the median will be the average of the 3rd and 4th ages.
Median = (32 + 42) / 2 = 37
Therefore, the median age of the group of friends is 37 years.
wrong
still wrong
I apologize for the repeated mistake. Let me correct it.
The ages listed are: 28, 31, 32, 42, 47, 49
Arranging them in ascending order:
28, 31, 32, 42, 47, 49
Since there are 6 ages, the median will be the 4th value:
Median = 42
Therefore, the correct median age of the group of friends is 42 years.
Apologies for the mistake. Let's find the correct median age from the stem-and-leaf plot:
The ages are: 28, 31, 32, 42, 47, 49
Since there are 6 ages, the median will be the average of the 3rd and 4th ages.
That would be the average of 32 and 42.
Median = (32 + 42) / 2
Median = 74 / 2
Median = 37
Therefore, the correct median age of the group of friends is 37 years.
