Maria is applying for a summer job. Six employees doing the same work earn $8.00, $8.50, $9.00, $9.50, $10.00, and $23.50 per hour. In the interview, the boss tells Maria that the median of the hourly wages is $9.25. Is the boss’s statement misleading? Why or why not?

A. Yes; 9.25 is the mode
B.Yes; it seems to ignore the 23.50 amount
C.Yes; 9.25 is the mean
D.No; 9.25 is the correct mean

Respuesta :

the median is the number that is in the middle of all the other numbers in order but that is not the case
however, it is not the mean either
so we can see that 9.25 is between 9 and 9.5 when 23.5 is ignored
the correct answer is B
