Answer:
The median is 26
Step-by-step explanation:
A "median" is equivalent to, when the terms are arranged in the proper order, whichever term is in the "middle".
So- first, arrange the terms in ascending order.
[22, 22, 23, 23, 29, 29, 29, 31]
There are an even number- eight- terms in total, so we will take the average of the two "middle" terms.
(29+23)/2; 29 and 23 are the "middle" terms, and there are two of them.
(52)/2 = 26
Therefore, the median is 26.
I hope this helped! :)
If you assign variables to the problem, it can make things a lot simpler. Lets say chairs are x and tables are y. Therefore you have:
2x+6y=40
5x+3y=25
Now you can isolate the variable of one equation and put it into another (it doesn't matter which. I'm going to manipulate the top equation to plug into the bottom one).
2x=40-6y
x=20-3y
Now I plug into bottom equatioin:
5(20-3y) + 3y=25
100-15y+3y=25
100-12y=25
-12y=-75
y=$6.25
Now you can plug in y in either equation to get x.
2x+6(6.25)=40
37.5+2x=40
2x=2.5
x=1.25
So it costs $6.25 for each table and $1.25 for each chair. If you think about it, it would make sense for the table to cost more for the chair.
