The number of hours per week that the television is turned on is determined for each family in a sample. The mean of the data is 34 hours and the median is 30.2 hours. Twenty-four of the families in the sample turned on the television for 19 hours or less for the week. The 8th percentile of the data is 19 hours. Step 4 of 5 : What is the value of the 50th percentile

Respuesta :

Answer: The value of the 50th percentile is 30.2 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

Mean of the data watching television by 24 families = 34 hours

Median of the data watching television by 24 families = 30.2 hours

8th percentile of the data = 19 hours

The median of data is the value that divides the data into two equal halves.

This means that the median will represent the 50th percentile of data.

Thus, the value of the 50th percentile is 30.2 hours.
