The sum of the median and mode of the number of goals scored by the 23 players during the season is 1.
The question asks for the sum of the median and mode of the number of goals scored by the 23 players during the season. Let's first find the median, which is the middle value when the data is arranged in ascending order.
Goals | Number of Players
--------|---------------------
0 | 10
1 | 5
2 | 5
3 | 2
4 | 1
From the given table, we can see that 10 players scored 0 goals, 5 players scored 1 goal, 5 players scored 2 goals, 2 players scored 3 goals, and 1 player scored 4 goals.
Arranging this data in ascending order, we get: 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 4. The median is the middle value, which is the 12th value in this case, 1. Therefore, the median is 1.
The mode is the value that appears most frequently in the data. In this case, 0 appears most frequently, with a count of 10. Therefore, the mode is 0.
Finally, we can find the sum of the median and mode: 1 + 0 = 1.
