What is meant by the median of a set of data?
In probability theory and statistics, a median is described as the number separating the higher half of a sample from the lower half.So if you have 19 measurements and order them from least to greatest, the tenth value is the median.
What is the median of 13 14 14 18 19 21?
the median is the number in the middle. If there are two number sin the middle ( when total sample is even) take the average of the two(14 + 18)/2 = 16
What is the middle number?
Median is the middle number.
What is the median of 8 9 17 13 18 8 11?
sorted sample: 8 8 9 11 13 17 18 number of elements: 7 middle element and, therefore, the median: 11
Does the number pi have a median?
No. One number cannot have a median.
Can a median be negative?
Yes, a median can be a negative number.
What is the median of 1 number only?
Your single number is your only information of the median value of the population, so the median value is the same as your single number. It is also the mode and mean of your sample.
Is median always sometimes or never in a data set?
If the sample has an odd number of items in it then the median will definitely be in the sample at least once because the median is value of the set of data items whose value(s) are in the middle of the sample when the sample is sorted from smallest to largest. If the sample has an even number of items in it then if the middle items are different the median will be their average, and it will differ from all of the items in the data set. I could continue in this vein but already you can see that the median sometimes occurs in a data set but not always.
Can the sample mean be a negative number?
Yes, it can.
Can a median be a negative number?
Yes. For example the median temperature at the South Pole on the Celsius scale.
Can the mode and median be a negative number?
Yes, but only if the data set includes some negative numbers. For example, recording winter temperatures at the South Pole. They will all be negative (or most of them will be) so the mode and the median will be negative as well.
Can a minimum data value of a sample be a negative number?
Yes.
What is a five number summary?
In Statistics the Five Number Summary is the sample's minimum, lower quartile, median, upper quartile and maximum.

Explain why the absolute value of a number is never a negative number?
Sample Response: The absolute value of a number is the distance the number is from 0 on a number line. Since distance is never negative, absolute value is never negative.
What are a set of numbers representing some sort of information from the sample population?
One example is the "Five Number Summary" consisting of the sample's minimum, lower quartile, median, upper quartile and maximum.
