Answer:
median = 17.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The median is the middle value of a data set arranged in ascending order. If there is not a middle value then the median is the average value of the numbers either side of the middle.
Data in ascending order is
8, 15, 17, 18, 19, 21
The median is between 17 and 18, hence
median = = 17.5

Answer:
Formula for nth term in Arithmetic sequences is:
where a is the first term, d is the common difference and n is the number of terms.
As per the statement:
The rule for the pattern is add 4.
As the first term in line says the first term i,e 7
common difference(d)= 7
As the Jenna number is 8th in line.
Series we get;
7, 11, .........
We have to find the 8th term.
n = 8, a = 7 and d = 4
Using above formula:
Therefore, 35 number should Jenna say.
