Hi!

First, find the median of the original data set. 

Arrange the numbers in order,
2, 2, 4, 6, 7, 8, 18, 20, 24
Then find the middle number.
2, 2, 4, 6, 7, 8, 18, 20, 24

Now add the number 10.
2, 2, 4, 6, 7, 8, 10, 18, 20, 24
Find the new middle number.
2, 2, 4, 6, 7, 8, 10, 18, 20, 24
                 7.5

The first median was 7, the new one is 7.5. 

The median increases by 0.5.

Hope this helps! :)

The mean of this data set is 9. What number is missing?<br><br> 11,20,_,3,1
kherson [118]
Let the missing number be x

Mean is the total sum of data over the number of data therefore,

(11+20+x+3+1) / 5 = 9
Then simplify
(35 + x) / 5 = 9
Then multiply 5 to both sides
35 + x = 45
Then subtract 35 to both sides to find x
X= 10

Hope this helps!
