The following observations have been arranged in ascending order. If the median of the data is 63, find the value of `x :` `29 ,32 ,48 ,50 ,` `x ,x+2,72 ,78 ,84 ,95`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Total observations`=10` (even)
Median`=10/2=5th` and `10/2+1=6th`
Median`=(5th+6th)/2`
`⇒63=(x+x+2)/2`
`=(2x+2)/2=63`
`=(2(x+1))/2=63`
`=x+1=63`
`=x=63-1`
`=x=62`
