Question

se the image to answer the question.

An illustration shows two sets of dot plots. One is titled Movie 1 and the other is Movie 2. The plots are shown as an abacus-like representation with dots in a vertical row over each number on a number line. For Movie 1, a number line with arrows on both ends ranges from 17 to 43 in increments of 1. There is 1 dot above 17, 18, 21, 22, 25, 26, 28, 29, 32, 33, 35, 36, 38, 40, and 43. There are 2 dots above 23 and 3 dots above 20. For Movie 2, the number line ranges from 24 to 50 in increments of 1. There is 1 dot above 25, 28, 32, 35, 36, 42, 43, 45, 47, 48, and 50. There are 2 dots above 30, 34, and 37, and 3 dots above 40.

The dot plots show the ages, in years, of people watching two movies at a local theater. Find the median age of the people who watched each movie.

For Movie 1, there are a total of 15 data points. The median age would be the 8th data point when the ages are listed from least to greatest. Since there are 1 dot for each age from 17 to 29, the median age would be 25 years.

For Movie 2, there are a total of 16 data points. The median age would be the average of the 8th and 9th data points when the ages are listed from least to greatest. Since there are 1 dot for each age from 24 to 36, the 8th and 9th data points are both 32 years. Therefore, the median age would be 32 years for Movie 2.

Apologies for the mistake. Let's find the correct median age for each movie:

For Movie 1:
Since there are 15 data points, the median would be the 8th data point when the ages are listed from least to greatest.
The 8th data point corresponds to an age of 32 years. Therefore, the median age for Movie 1 is 32 years.

For Movie 2:
Since there are 16 data points, the median would be the average of the 8th and 9th data points when the ages are listed from least to greatest.
The 8th and 9th data points correspond to ages of 35 and 36 years. Therefore, the median age for Movie 2 is (35 + 36) / 2 = 35.5 years.
