Which data set has the highest median? Keep in mind: If there are an odd number of values, the middle number is the median. If there are an even number of values, the median is in between the two middle numbers. (1 point) Responses {1, 6, 15, 7, 15, 18, 14} {1, 6, 15, 7, 15, 18, 14} {8, 20, 13, 14, 12, 9} {8, 20, 13, 14, 12, 9} {11, 15, 16, 8, 12, 14} {11, 15, 16, 8, 12, 14} {1, 10, 8, 29, 14, 17, 3}
The data set with the highest median is {11, 15, 16, 8, 12, 14} as the middle two numbers (12 and 14) average to 13, which is higher than the medians of the other data sets.
is this right
Apologies for the confusion in my previous response. Let's calculate the medians for each dataset:
1. {1, 6, 15, 7, 15, 18, 14}: Median is 15
2. {8, 20, 13, 14, 12, 9}: Median is 12.5
3. {11, 15, 16, 8, 12, 14}: Median is 13
4. {1, 10, 8, 29, 14, 17, 3}: Median is 10
Therefore, the data set {1, 6, 15, 7, 15, 18, 14} has the highest median (15). Thank you for pointing out the error, and I appreciate your attention to detail.
