  • The histogram has 4 bins.
  • The frequency values of the 4 bins are as follows:
    • 30 to 39 points: More than halfway between 0 and 5
    • 40 to 49 points: About halfway between 5 and 10
    • 50 to 59 points: About halfway between 25 and 30
    • 60 to 69 points: About halfway between 10 and 15

The histogram summarizes data set A, which represents the number of points per player earned by 50 players of a game. A new player earns 18 points playing the game, and this number of points is added to data set A to create data set B with 51 values. Which of the following must be true?

  1. The median number of points per player for data set B is less than the median number of points per player for data set A.
  2. The mean number of points per player for data set B is less than the mean number of points per player for data set A.
