Question

a cable company analyst paid attention to how many new customers it had each day.
new cable customers
bar graph with y - axis “number of new customers” (0 to 100) and x - axis days: wednesday, tuesday, friday, saturday, sunday
what is the median of the numbers?

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the number of new customers each day

From the bar graph, we can see the number of new customers for each day:

• Wednesday: 50
• Tuesday: 30
• Friday: 100
• Saturday: 60
• Sunday: 10 (assuming the last bar is at 10, as it's the shortest)

Step2: Arrange the numbers in ascending order

First, we list the numbers: 10, 30, 50, 60, 100.

Step3: Find the median

The median is the middle value when the numbers are arranged in order. Since there are 5 values (an odd number), the median is the 3rd value.

Answer:

50
