Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

median from the given data; 50, 60, 10, 5

arrange in order: 5, 10, 50, 60

The median is a measure of central tendency. It represents the value for which 50% of observations a lower and 50% are higher. Put simply, it is the value at the center of the sorted observations.

therefore,

the median = (10 + 50) / 2

                  = 30

The median daily exercise class range is 30 minutes

Reason for the above range:

The median of the histogram is given as follows;

The width of each bar = 30

The total area of the histogram = 30×50 + 30×60 + 30×10 + 30×5 = 3,750

The median = 3,750/2 = 1,875

The area of the first class = 30×50 = 1,500

The area of the second class = 30×60 = 1,800

The difference between the median and the area of the first class = 1,875 - 1,500 = 375

The median is therefore larger than the first class but within the second class

The depth within the second class the median is located = 375/60 = 6.25

The median best estimate = (30 + 6.25) minutes = 36.25 minutes

Range =

The range of the median class interval = between 31 and 60 minutes = 30 minutes
