A local farmer tested plant growth with a new type of fertilizer. After 2 months, the farmer randomly selected 8 plants out of a total of 50 plants. The data set shows the heights of the 8 plants, in inches:

{16, 17, 14, 18, 20, 16, 18, 17}

What is the estimated mean and median height of the 50 plants?

Answer :

Height = {16, 17, 14, 18, 20, 16, 18, 17}
= {14, 16, 16, 17, 17, 18, 18, 20}

Mean height = (14+16+16+17+17+18+18+20)/8 = 136/8 = 17 inches

Median height = (17+17)/2 = 17 inches

Hope it helps!
