Calculate the median 5,10,12,4,6,11,13,5

For this case, we have by definition that, the median of a set of numbers is the average number in the set, after the numbers have been ordered from lowest to highest. If there is an even number in the set, the median is the average of the two middle numbers.

So, the given set is:

{4,5,5,6,10,11,12,13}

Since there are 8 numbers, the set is even. Then we find the average of the two numbers in the middle:

The median is 8

mr. flanders’ class sold 47 doughnuts and   mr. rodriquez’s class sold 38 cartons of milk

step-by-step explanation:

let x be the number of doughnuts sold by mr. flanders’ class and y be the number of cartons sold by mr. rodriquez’s class.

1. together, the classes sold 85 items, then

x+y=85.

2. both classes earn earned $104.49 for their school. if doughnuts were sold for $1.35 each, then x doughnuts costed $1.35x. if cartons of milk were sold for $1.08 each, then y cartons costed $1.08y. hence,

1.35x+1.08y=104.49.

3. solve the system of two equations:
