The empirical distribution of some variable X is given by the following table. (xi are observed values, ni - their frequencies) Xi; 2,4,6,8,9,10. Ni; 1,2,3,4,5,6 Find the median.

Step 1
The median is the value that separates the higher half from the lower half of a data set. When the data set has an odd number of observations, the median is the middle value. When the data set has an even number of observations, the median is the average of the Show more…
