Answer:
Median = 45
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following data set:
21, 23, 76, 47, 55, 135, 45, 30, 17
Median is the number that divides the data into two equal parts.
Formula:
[tex]Median:\\\text{If n is odd, then}\\\\Median = \displaystyle\frac{n+1}{2}th ~term \\\\\text{If n is even, then}\\\\Median = \displaystyle\frac{\frac{n}{2}th~term + (\frac{n}{2}+1)th~term}{2}[/tex]
Sorted data:
17, 21, 23, 30, 45, 47, 55, 76, 135
Sample size = 9, which is odd
Median =
[tex]\dfrac{9+1}{2}^{th}\text{ term} = \dfrac{10}{2}^{th}\text{ term} = 5^{th}\text{ term}\\\\= 45[/tex]
The median of given set of numbers is 45.
