Find the median and mode of this set of data 5 , 1, 3, 5, 8 , 10, 8, 14
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

Mode: 5 and 8

Median: 6.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Mode - the number that appears the most in a set of data. There may be no mode ( when no number out numbers the others)  or multiple modes ( multiple numbers appear the same number of times). Both 5 and 8 appear twice in this set.

Median - The middle number. To start, order your numbers from least to greatest.

1, 3, 5, 5, 8, 8, 10, 14

You have an even set of numbers (8 in total), which means there won't be one number left in the middle. In this situation, there are two: 5 and 8. So you just need to add them together and divide by 2

8 + 5 = 13        

13/ 2 = 6.5

A cellphone company charges $60 for a cellphone and a monthly rate to use the phone.Regina will pay $1,140 for a 24-month cellph
Alinara [238K]

The monthly rate is $45 for this cellphone plan.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Amount charged for cell phone = $60

Amount paid by Regina for 24 month plan = $1140

Number of months = 24

Let,

m be the monthly rate for cellphone plan

Number of months * Monthly rate + cellphone charges = Amount paid

24m+60=1140\\24m=1140-60\\24m=1080

Dividing both sides by 24

\frac{24m}{24}=\frac{1080}{24}\\m=45

The monthly rate is $45 for this cellphone plan.
