It can somteimes be one of the data values. When there's an odd set of numbers, the median will always be one of the data values. When there's a even set of numbers, the median will sometimes be one of the data values.
Even:
2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7
Now, we need to find the number between 4 and 5, which is 4.5, 4.5 doesn't show up in the data set.
2,3, 5, 5, 6, 7
The middle of 5 and 5 is 5 since it's the same number. 5 does show up in the data set.
So, the median sometimes is one of the data values.

Answer: Choice C) $1125</h3>
==============================================================
Explanation:
We'll add up the values in the bottom row of the table.
A value like +150 is the same as simply saying 150
The negatives stick around.
Adding up the values in that row gets us
150 + (-50) + 400 + 300 + (-175) + (-250) = 375
This indicates that over the entire 6 month period, the overall change is +375
---------
In other words, the initial investment (call it x) has increased by 375 dollars over the 6 month period.
We can then say:
x + 375 = 1500
x = 1500-375
x = 1125
She initially invested $1125
Answer:
(2x + 6)/3 = y
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 5 = 3y - 1
2x + 5 + 1 = 3y
(2x +6)/3 = 3y
