Answer:

$x = \frac{41}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 5 - 3x + 1 = -45

-2x - 4 = -45

-2x = -45 + 4

-2x = -41

x = 41 ÷ 2

x = 41/2

The mean is not the same thing as median
mean=78+81+85+87=331
mean=331/4=82.75
median is the middle number, but you have a par set of numbers, so your median will be the middle numbers 78,81,85,87 , which are 81+85=166, 166/2=83
83 is your median
