Solution

The answer is B i.e. median.

A median is the number separating the higher half of a data sample, a probability distribution, from the lower half. The median of a finite list of numbers can be found by arranging all the observations from lowest value to highest value and picking the middle one.

In the attached figure,the mrdian is being represented by the vertical arrow in the middle of the data set.

The only other arrow in the attached figure is a horizontal arrow indicating the x -values. It is called the domain of a function ( and not the range) By definition,\" the domain of a function is the complete set of possible values of the independent variable(x)\". Also,\"the range of a function is the complete set of all possible resulting values of the dependent variable (y, usually), after we have substituted the domain\".

Thus, the answer is B i.e. median
