A. To find the median, we need to arrange the data in order from least to greatest. Counting the number of X's on the line plot, we can see that there are a total of 24 data points. The middle value would be the 12th data point. Looking at the line plot, we can see that the 12th data point corresponds to 9 pints. Therefore, the median is 9 pints.
B. To find the number of people who participated in the contest, we need to count the number of X's on the line plot. Counting them up, we can see that there are a total of 12 X's. Therefore, 12 people participated in the contest.
So the answer is A. 9 pints; 12 people.
