Question

Alex records the running time—the number of minutes a movie lasts from start to finish—of 50 popular movies. The distribution of times, in minutes, is shown in the histogram below

Which interval contains the median movie run time
A. 90–100 minutes
b. 100–110 minutes
c. 110–120 minutes
d. 120–130 minutes

Answer 1

The interval that contains the median movie run time is 100-110 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the interval that contains the median movie run time, we first need to find the cumulative frequency of the histogram. From the given histogram, we can see that the cumulative frequency at the 100-110 minutes interval is 24. Since the median divides the data into two equal parts, the interval that contains the median movie run time is 100-110 minutes.
