Answer 1

Q.4:

We are given the data on the ages of female actors when they starred in their award-winning performances.

The mean of the data is given by

`mean=(\sum x_i)/(n)`

Where xi is the sum of all the ages and n is the total number of values in the data set.

The sum of ages is 1440 and the total number of values are 36

`mean=(1440)/(36)=40`

The mean age is 40 years.

The median value is the most middle value in the data set.

To find the median, arrange the data in ascending order (least to greatest)
