To find the median, first arrange the data set in ascending order:
2, 13, 14, 14, 15, 17, 18, 19
Since the data set has an even number of values (8), the median is the average of the two middle values. In this case, the middle values are 14 and 15.
Hence, the median is (14 + 15)/2 = 29/2 = 14.5.
Therefore, the correct answer is 14.5.
Use the following data set to answer this question:
14, 17, 13, 15, 14, 19, 2, 18
