Blood pressure values are often reported to the nearest 5 mmhg (100, 105, 110, etc.). the actual blood pressure values for nine randomly selected individuals are given below. 108.6 117.4 128.4 120.0 103.7 112.0 98.3 121.5 123.2

Required:
a. What is the median of the reported blood pressure values?
b. Suppose the blood pressure of the second individual is 117.7 rather than 117.4 (a small change in a single value). What is the new median of the reported values?
c. What does this say about the sensitivity of the median to rounding or grouping in the data?

Step-by-step explanation:

Arranging the data in the ascending order:

108.698.3103.7112117.4120121.5123.2128.4

The median is the middle value of the data set:

a)

Hence,

median = 117.4

b)

When the value of blood pressure is 117.7 instead of 117.4 then the median will be:

Median = 117.7

c)

This indicates that the median of a well sorted set of data is depends upon the middle value of the data set.

$53.50

step-by-step explanation:

you have to subtract the amount of money chuck earned ($72.50) by the cost of the gas for the mower ($11.25) and the new string for the trimmer he bought ($7.75).

72.50-11.25=61.25

and then subtract $61.25 by the second thing he bought (the new string for the trimmer)

61.25-7.75=53.5

so in total it's $53.50 (53 dollars and 50 cents)
