QuestionFind the midrange for the data items in the given frequency distribution. \begin{tabular}{|l|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|} \hline Score, $\mathbf{x}$ & 70 & 71 & 72 & 73 & 74 & 75 & 76 & 77 \\ \hline Frequency, $\mathbf{f}$ & 3 & 2 & 5 & 5 & 3 & 1 & 1 & 2 \\ \hline \end{tabular}
The midrange is $\square$ (Type an integer or a decimal.)

Studdy Solution
Calculate the midrange using the formula:
$\text{Midrange} = \frac{\text{Minimum score} + \text{Maximum score}}{2}$
Substitute the identified minimum and maximum scores:
$\text{Midrange} = \frac{70 + 77}{2} = \frac{147}{2} = 73.5$
The midrange is:
$$\boxed{73.5}$$
