We can find the median by using the formula:

(N+1/2) th item

For example:

Given data: 4,6,3,5,7

We have to arrange the data into ascending order:

=3,4,5,6,7

N(total no of items)=5

Now,

Median=(N+1/2)th item

 =(5+1/2) th item

 =(6/2) th item

 = 3rd item

Median=5

Hope it helps

Good luck on your assignment

To find the median, put all numbers into ascending order and work into the middle by crossing off numbers at each end. If there are a lot of items of data, add 1 to the number of items of data and then divide by 2 to find which item of data will be the median

30% of 48 plus the numbers sold last month
.3 x 48 +48
14.4 +48
62.4
Round up because the numbers has to be an integer value. (You can't have 2/5 of a computer).

True or False?: To make a sketch of any rational function whose numerator is a number and whose denominator is a factored polyno

sergejj [24]

The question is for any rational function. I give one example in picture below. There we can see that first part of the "rule" is true. we indeed have vertical asymptotes at every x value where denominator is zero in this case x = 3 and x = 1. but second part of the rule is not true. we can see that if we inverse x ( we have factor that looks like a - x we get positive function between asymptotes.

Answer is False
