To find the statement which is not true.
Answer to Problem 1CST
The statement C. the median is 67, is not true.
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The greatest data value is 79, the range is 28, the median is 67 and the mode is 77.
From the given stem and leaf plot, it can be easily observed that the dataset from least to greatest are as follows:
51,56,57,60,62,65,74,76,77,77,79
From the above dataset, it can be concluded,
The greatest data value is 79.
The range of the dataset is 79-51, hence range is 28
the most often data value is 77 hence, the mode is 77
Therefore,
it can be concluded that the option C is not correct because 67 is not included in the list of the dataset.
Therefore, the statement C. the median is 67, is not true.
