The median is 44.

Solución

To find the median, first arrange the numbers in increasing order: 31, 36, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 53 Since there are 9 numbers (an odd number), the median is the middle value, which is the 5th number in the list. Counting over, the 5th number is 44. Thus, the median of the dataset is 44.

Bonus Knowledge

To find the median, start by arranging the data set in ascending order: \( 31, 36, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 53 \). Since there are 9 numbers (an odd quantity), the median is the middle number. Counting through the sorted list, the fifth number is \( 44 \). Therefore, the median of this data set is \( 44 \). Keep practicing with different data sets! Remember, the key to finding the median is first sorting the numbers and then identifying that central value. If you ever have an even number of data points, just take the average of the two middle values!

1 TIMEREMAINING \( 46: 43 \) Julian is a manager at a clothing store for teens. He is analyzing the order for next seas̈on. Data for the previous 10 years suggests that teens are willing to spend an average of \( \$ 75 \) for a pair of designer jeans with a standard deviation of \( \$ 5 \). However, Julian thinks the average may have changed due to a recession. He finds that the last three seasons of data show that teens spent an average of \( \$ 68 \) on a pair of jeans. Therefore, he performed a hypothesis test to see if the recent average is the same. Julian used a significance level of \( 5 \% \) to perform the test. Which of the following statements is valid based on the results? Julian's data shows that the recent seasons' average jean price is not \( \$ 75 \). Julian's data shows that he should order fewer jeans than before. Julian's data shows that the recent seasons' average jean price is still \( \$ 75 \). Julian's data is inconclusive, so he should order the same number of jeans.

A study investigated the job satisfaction of teachers allowed to choose supplementary cैurriculum for their classes versus teachers who were assigned all curricular resources for use in their classes. On average, when surveyed regarding job satisfaction, teachers give a score of 3.3 out of 5 with a standard deviation of 0.6 . When the authors of the study interviewed 40 teachers who supplemented with their own materials, they found 3.5 to be the mean. The authors wanted to know if the group of teachers that could choose supplementary curriculum had a higher level of job satisfaction. They used a significance level of \( 1 \% \). Which of the following statements is valid based on the results of the test? The data shows that teachers allowed to choose supplementary curriculum for classes are more satisfied with their jobs. The data shows that teachers who were assigned all curricular resources for classes are more satisfied with their jobs. The data shows that there is no difference in job satisfaction between the two groups of teachers. The data shows that the authors cannot make a determination either way with this data.
