Mean = (4 + 3.5 + 6 + 7.2 + 5 + 6.1 + 3.6 + 7.1 + 3 + 3.2) / 10
Mean = 48.7 / 10
Mean = 4.87 cm
To find the median, first arrange the data in ascending order:
3, 3.2, 3.5, 3.6, 4, 5, 6, 6.1, 7.1, 7.2
Since there are an even number of data points (10), the median is the average of the 5th and 6th terms:
Median = (4 + 5) / 2
Median = 4.5 cm
Therefore, the mean seedling height is 4.87 cm and the median seedling height is 4.5 cm.
