Terms given
No of terms=8
We know
[tex]\boxed{\sf Mean=\dfrac{Sum\;of\:terms}{No\;of\:terms}}[/tex]
[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto Mean=\dfrac{40+35+32+39+34+35+35+37}{8}[/tex]
[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto Mean=\dfrac{270}{8}[/tex]
[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto Mean=35[/tex]
Final Answer:
35
Step-by-step explanation:
-median is the middle number in the data set-
arrange the data set from least to greatest:
40, 30, 32, 39, 34, 35, 35, 37 ⇒ 30, 32, 34, 35, 35, 37, 39, 40
we start from the lowest number and the highest number and work your way to the middle:
30, 32, 34, 35, 35, 37, 39, 40
notice that there is no middle number:
30, 32, 34, 35, ?, 35, 37, 39, 40
so what we do is add both 35's and then divide it by 2
35 + 35 = 70 ÷ 2 = 35
median: 35
