The histogram appears to be unimodal and is symmetric. There are no gaps, and
the plot appears to have a slight positive skew and is fairly spread out.

c. The largest value can be increased infinitely without it affecting the median, as
any positive changes to the number will not lead to any change in its position, and
subsequently will not lead to a change in the median. And it can be decreased by at
most 54 before it affects the median value.

Since there are an odd number of entries, the median is the middle term once the
values have been arranged in ascending order 127.4
Despite the change in the value to 127.6, since the terms are quite largely spaced
in terms of their values, a minute change in one of the values, is not large enough
for it to alter its position relative to other terms in the array. Thus, the median in this
case in not very sensitive to rounding.

2 x i+ 2 c=0 for minimum 2 x i=2c x i=c for minimum

Since xx is the mean of the sample, the chances of xx to be equal to x i is greater

than being equal to x i . Thus, the estimate for ( xi x )2 will be

smaller than the estimate for ( xi )2 .
