Answer 1

To estimate the median of the data represented in the histogram, you would typically identify the bin that contains the median value based on the distribution of frequencies across the bars.

Since I don't have the actual image of the bar graph, I can't provide the exact bin for the median. However, you can follow these steps to find the median:

1. **Calculate the total frequency** (sum of all the frequencies of the bars).
2. **Determine the median position**: This can be found at (Total frequency + 1) / 2.
3. **Cumulatively add the frequencies** from left to right until you reach the median position.
4. **Identify the bin** in which the median falls.

Once you do this, you should be able to select the correct response based on the bin that corresponds to the median value.

If you have the specific frequencies for each bin or can describe the data, I can help analyze it further!
