Sagot :
the last period class had a greatest median of 87 while first period had a median of 81. good luck!!
The median would be the center number of data points.
Let’s list them
First period:
80, 84, 78, 90, 96, 88, 98, 74, 80, 80, 78, 82
Last period;
88, 84, 86, 88, 92, 94, 96, 78, 88, 80, 84, 86
Let’s put the two classes in order from least to greatest.
First period:
74, 78, 78, 80, 80, 80, 82, 84, 88, 90, 96, 98
Last period:
78, 80, 84, 84, 86, 86, 88, 88, 88, 92, 94, 96
Since there are an even amount of each data set, we need to find the two center points, add them, and divide by 2.
Center points for first period:
80 and 82
Center points for last period:
86 and 88
Add them then divide by 2
( 80 + 82 )/2
162/2
81
( 86 + 88 )/2
174/2
87
Last period had the greatest median with a median of 87.
