Detailed Solution

Given is a table, median is 46 and total number of items is 230.
Question ImageMedian divides the data into upper half and lower half observations.
The frequency distribution table for data above for the data is as follows:
Question ImageSo,
x+y+150=230 x+y=230150 x+y=80............ 1  
The expression for median is given as, x ¯ =l+ N 2 cf f ×h  , where N is the number of total observations, cf is cumulative frequency of class before median class, f is frequency of median class, h is class interval, l is lower interval.
46=40+ 115x42 60 10 6 10 = 73x 65 39=73x x=7339 x=34  
Substituting 3   for x   in the equation 1  ,
x+y=80 y=8034 y=46  
Thus, the values of x is 34 and y is 46.
Therefore, option (2) is correct.
