(i) Is there more than onemode​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Mode:2 that is 43,43

Median:47

Answer 2

Answer:

mode is 43 and median is 40

Explanation:

mode= the no. which appears the most

so only 43 in this question is the no. which appears more than 1 time. others appear only one time. so this means 43 is the mode.

and there is only one mode.

median=is the middle no. so for that you need to arrange the data either in ascending or descending order.

ascending order= 32 35 37 38 40 42 43 43 45 50

median=n/2 where is the no. of data. so here 10 nos. are given

so, median= 10/2=5

so the 5th no. in your data is the median. you can count it from both left and right side.

therefore the median is 40.
