Question

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}{1, 10, 8, 29, 14, 17, 3}

Answer 1

The data set {11, 15, 16, 8, 12, 14} has the highest median.

First, let's arrange the data sets in ascending order:
{1, 6, 15, 7, 15, 18, 14} has a median of 15
{8, 20, 13, 14, 12, 9} has a median of 13.5
{11, 15, 16, 8, 12, 14} has a median of 13.5
{1, 10, 8, 29, 14, 17, 3} has a median of 10

Among these data sets, the data set {11, 15, 16, 8, 12, 14} has the highest median of 13.5.
