Question

A climatologist wants to determine the thickness of a glacier with a surface area of about 2 km². He selected 10 locations at random on the glacier and then measured the thickness of the glacier, in meters, at each location.

41, 38, 36, 29, 34, 44, 46, 43, 35, 40

What is the estimated median thickness of the entire glacier?

Enter your answer in the box.

Answer 1

the answer is 39m

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Thicknesses at different point are: 41, 38, 36, 29, 34, 44, 46, 43, 35, 40


In increasing order: 29, 34, 35, 36, 38, 40, 41, 43, 44, 46

Median = (38+40)/2 = 39m

Median thickness is 39m
