Let´s see an example:
(10, 15, 20, 60, 105, 105, 380)
Median (y): 60
Mean (x): 99,28
Mode (z): 105
(A) There are more students whose heights are greater than x - No, 3 out of 7.
(B) The tallest student has a height of z - No, it´s 380.
(C) x is the average of y and z - No, the average of y and z is 82,5
(D) The shortest student has a height of less than x
(E) The middle student has a height of x - No, this is median.
(10, 15, 20, 60, 105, 105, 380)
Median (y): 60
Mean (x): 99,28
Mode (z): 105
(A) There are more students whose heights are greater than x - No, 3 out of 7.
(B) The tallest student has a height of z - No, it´s 380.
(C) x is the average of y and z - No, the average of y and z is 82,5
