Question

6, 8, 11, 12, 2x – 8, 2x + 10, 35, 41, 42, 50

are in ascending order. If the median is 25,
find the value of x.
Ans: 12​

Answer 1

x = 16.5 as the median in this term is 2x-8

and 2x-8 = 25

25+8=2x

33=2x

x=
`(33)/(2)`

= 16.5

Explanation:

this answer says 12 which is false

Answer 2

12

Explanation:

(2x-8+2x+10)/2 = 25

(4x+2) = 2×25

4x+2 = 50

4x = 50-2

4x = 48

x = 48/4

x = 12
