Consider the sample of n = 5 scores whose frequency distribution histogram is shown here.

Divides Area in Half543210fX12345

The total area in the histogram =

boxes.

Half the area in the histogram =

boxes.

Add a vertical line to the frequency distribution histogram that divides the total area exactly in half. In other words, place the vertical line so that it makes the area on the right and left of the line equal. (Hint: Drag the line labeled Divides Area in Half onto the graph. First, make sure your line is vertical by positioning its two circle symbols on the same vertical grid line; avoid positioning either circle on the edge of the graph area. Then grab the line by a point that is not one of the circles to slide it to its correct position.)Assume that the scores are measurements of a discretevariable. Find the median.

The median is

.

Now assume that the scores are measurements of a continuousvariable. Find the precise median.

The median is
