In a set of eleven different numbers, which of the following CANNOT affect the value of the median?
\n" ); document.write( "A. Doubling each number
\n" ); document.write( "B. Increasing each number by 10
\n" ); document.write( "C. Increasing the smallest number only
\n" ); document.write( "D. Decreasing the largest number only
\n" ); document.write( "E. Increasing the largest number only\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "CHOICE A. Doubling each number WILL DEFINITELY CHANGE the value of the median.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "CHOICE B.
\n" ); document.write( "Increasing each number by 10 WILL DEFINITELY CHANGE the value of the median.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "CHOICE C.
\n" ); document.write( "Increasing the smallest number only CAN POSSIBLY CHANGE the value of the median, especially if it is increased to a value greater than the median.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "CHOICE D.
\n" ); document.write( "Decreasing the largest number only CAN POSSIBLY CHANGE the value of the median, especially if it is decreased to a value less than the median.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight_green%28CHOICE_E%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "Increasing the largest number only MOST DEFINITELY WILL NOT CHANGE the value of the median, as the median maintains its value and will be in the same position as before - the position of the center or middle value in the set of data values.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
