What is the median of the data set S that consists of the integers 17, 29, 10, 26, 15, and x ?
(1) The average (arithmetic mean) of S is 17.
(2) The range of S is24.
Targetquestion: What is the median of the data setS
Statement1 : The average (arithmetic mean) of S is17.
In other words, (17 + 29 + 10 + 26 + 15 + x)/6 = 17
At this point, we should recognize that we COULD solve this equation for x, which means we COULD answer the targetquestion with certainty.
Statement 1 isSUFFICIENT
