Back to back stem and leaf plot showing the points scored by each player on two different basketball teams as shown below . what is the median number of points scored for each team?

a: median for team 1: 14
median for team 2: 16

b: median for team 1: 16
median for team 2: 17

c: median for team 1: 16
median for team 2: 16

d: median for team 1: 18
median for team 2: 18

The correct option is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given table the scores of team 1 are

1, 6, 12, 14, 18, 23, 26, 29

Divide the data in two equal parts.

(1, 6, 12, 14), (18, 23, 26, 29)

The median of team 1 is the midpoint of 14 and 18.

The median for team 1 is 16.

From the given table the scores of team 2 are

3, 7, 14, 16, 18, 19, 25, 27

Divide the data in two equal parts.

(3, 7, 14, 16), (18, 19, 25, 27)

The median of team 2 is the midpoint of 16 and 18.

The median for team 2 is 17.

Therefore option B is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: solve one of the equations for one of the variables. let's solve the first equation for y:

step 2: substitute that equation into the other equation, and solve for x.

step 3: substitute x = 4 x = 4 x=4 into one of the original equations, and solve for y.

$6.42
