The value of x is 62
Step-by-step explanation:
The sequence of the numbers is 29,32,48,50,x,x+2,72,78,84,95.
According to the question, the median of these numbers is 63.
The median is defined as the number which is located in the middle of the sequence.
In the above sequence, the average value of the 5th and 6th numbers is the median.
Thus,
(x + x + 2)/2 = 63
2x + 2 = 126
2x = 124
X = 62
The value of the number in the 5th position, x, is 62, while the number at the 6th position is x+2, i.e., 64
