What is the median of this set of data?
32,36,38,39,42

38

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the median, make sure the number are in increasing order (they are), then start crossing out the outside numbers until you meet in the middle:

32 36 38 39 42

/ 36 38 39 /

/ / 38 / /

The only number left is 38, so the median is 38.

If there were two numbers remaining, you would take the average of the two.

    (Add both numbers and divide by 2)

the answer is:

the answer is:

to solve the problem, we need to remember the quotient of power property, it's defined by the following relation:

if we have a quotienf of powers that have the same base, we need to keep the same base and subtract the exponent of the denominator power to the exponent of the numerator power.

so, we are given the expression:

then, calculating we have:

hence, the answer is:

have a nice day!
