Question

The median of the observations 11, 12, 14, 18, x+2, x+4, 30, 32, 35,41 arranged
order is 24. Find the value of x. ​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

x+2 and X+4 are the median

by solving problem x=2

Therefore,median is 2

Answer 2

The median of the following observation arranged in order is 24.

Find x: 11, 12, 14, 18, x+2, x+4, 30, 32, 35, 41.

median is the middle number in a sorted list of numbers.

here number of observations =10.

so here we have 2 mid-terms, 5th and 6th terms are the mid-terms of the given observation.

median will be the average of the 5th and 6th term.

5th term=x+2 and 6th term=x+4

Median = x+2+x+4/2=24

x + 3 = 24

x= 24-3

x= 21
