Question

The following frequency table shows the number of players on the Russian Bears volleyball team that have been

Answer 1

Answer:

The median number of injured players is 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The median is the number in the middle when arranged from least to greatest. As there are an even number of matches, we must add the two numbers in the middle and divide it by 2 in order to find the median number

$(1+2)/2=1.5$

Answer 2

Answer:

1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The given table is

Number of injured players                 Number of matches

               0                                                            0

               1                                                             2

               2                                                            1

               3                                                            0

               4                                                            1

Using the table, we can rewrite the given data as

1, 1, 2, 4

Here, the number of observation is 4, which is an even number.

The median of an even number is

$Median=\dfrac{(\frac{n}{2})\text{th term}+(\frac{n}{2}+1)\text{th term}}{2}$

$Median=\dfrac{(\frac{4}{2})\text{th term}+(\frac{4}{2}+1)\text{th term}}{2}$

$Median=\dfrac{2\text{nd term}+3\text{rd term}}{2}$

2nd term is 1 and third term is 2.

$Median=\dfrac{1+2}{2}$

$Median=\dfrac{3}{2}$

$Median=1.5$

Therefore, the median number of injured players is 1.5.
