Correct Answer: [14]
Explanation:
To find the median of the given data set: 18, 12, 10, 16, 19, 15, 13, 10, follow these steps:
Steps:
- Sort the data in ascending order: 10, 10, 12, 13, 15, 16, 18, 19
- Since there are 8 numbers (even count), the median is the average of the 4th and 5th numbers
- The 4th number is 13 and the 5th number is 15
- Calculate the average: \( \frac{13 + 15}{2} = \frac{28}{2} = 14 \)
Final Answer: \(\boxed{14}\)
