Answer:

The median is 5.5.

Explanation:

You can find the median by looking at the middle of the number sequence.

In this case the median would be 5.5 bc the sequence includes 2 numbers that are in the middle making the median 5.5.

Ok, so to find the median in a sequence of 10 number you would have to add the two middle numbers then divide the answer by two to find the answer.

Hope this helps:)

-8+19=11

11/2=5.5

Answer:

6.5

Explanation:

Not hard. Organize the numbers from least to greatest.

-19, -8, -2, 6, 6, 7, 13, 15, 16, 19

The middle numbers are 6 and 7, add them up, divide by two to get 13/2 = 6.5
