how to find the median of x,2x+1,x/2-13,45 and x+22 if the mean of this set of numbers is 83?

1 answer

first solve:
(x + 2x+1 + (x/2)-13 + 45 + x+22)/5 = 83
everything times 10

2x + 4x + 2 + x - 26 + 90 + 2x + 44 = 830
9x = 720
x = 80

so #'s are: 80 ,161, 27, 45 , and 102

Can you find their median?
