Answer:

The correct answer option is C. 0.

Explanation:

We are given the following data set and we are to find its median value:


- 1 0 0 0 , - 9 9 9 , 1 9 9 8 , ... , -1 , 0 , 1 , ... , 9 9 8 , 9 9 9 , 1 0 0 0

Median is the middle value of a data set which divides it into to halves.

The data set we have starts from -1000 and goes till 1000 which means there are total 2001 elements in it.

Therefore, 0 will the middle value which is the median for this data set.
