For what value of x, is the median of the following frequency distribution 34•5?
For what value of x, is the median of the following frequency distribution $\displaystyle 34$•$\displaystyle 5$?
| Class | Frequency |
| $\displaystyle 0$-$\displaystyle 10$ | $\displaystyle 3$ |
| $\displaystyle 10$-$\displaystyle 20$ | $\displaystyle 5$ |
| $\displaystyle 20$-$\displaystyle 30$ | $\displaystyle 11$ |
| $\displaystyle 30$-$\displaystyle 40$ | $\displaystyle 10$ |
| $\displaystyle 40$-$\displaystyle 50$ | x |
| $\displaystyle 50$-$\displaystyle 60$ | $\displaystyle 3$ |
| $\displaystyle 60$-$\displaystyle 70$ | $\displaystyle 2$ |
Marking-scheme solution
\[\begin{aligned}
\therefore 34 \cdot 5 & =30+\frac{10}{10}\left(\frac{34+x}{2}-19\right) \\
& \Rightarrow x=13
\end{aligned}
