Question

SECTION B

Answer 1

Answer: The median value of data set B is -5.5, which is less than the median value of 3.1 in dataset A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Order the dataset from least to greatest:

-38 → -13 → -9 → -2 → 14 → 28

Then find the values that lies in the middle:

-38 → -13 → -9 → -2 → 14 → 28

Since there are 2 values, find the average of those 2 values:

$\frac{-9+(-2)}{2} =\frac{-11}{2} =-5.5$

The median value = -5.5.

The median value of data set B is -5.5, which is less than the median value of  3.1 in dataset A.
