Chelsi has talked to her artist friends about how much money they earn each year from working in the arts. She gathers these values from seven people: [$1,500; $6,700; $2,200; $8,100; $50,500; $12,000; $2,200]. What is the median of this data set?

The median would be 6700

Explanation:

Arrange data values from lowest to highest value

The median is the data value in the middle of the set

.

Ordering a data set x1 ≤ x2 ≤ x3 ≤ ... ≤ xn from lowest to highest value, the median x˜ is the data point separating the upper half of the data values from the lower half.

If the size of the data set n is odd the median is the value at position p where

Formula for the median

p=n+12

x˜=xp

If n is even the median is the average of the values at positions p and p + 1 where

p=n2

x˜=xp+xp+12

If there are 2 data values in the middle the median is the mean of those 2 values.

each chemical family is represented as a group or column on the periodic table. based on chemical properties, there are 6 types of chemical families. group 1 represents alkali metals, group 2 represents alkaline earth metals, groups 3 to 12 represent transition metals, groups 13 to 16 represent non-metals and other metals, group 17 represents halogens and group 18 represents noble gases.
