It seems you've uploaded an image. I'll first analyze the content of the image and extract the relevant mathematical information to assist you with it. Please give me a moment to review it. PIL import Image
Open the uploaded image to inspect its contents
image_path = '/mnt/data/1733701730856sbkzfsjx.jpg' img = Image.open(image_path)
Display the image to understand its contents
img.show()I've displayed the image for review. Now, I will extract the mathematical content and provide a solution. Let me proceed with analyzing the image. pytesseract
Use OCR (Optical Character Recognition) to extract text from the image

extracted_textThe image contains data about a college basketball player's performance in 37 games, with a stem-and-leaf plot showing the distribution of points scored. Here’s the breakdown:
- The data is presented in a stem-and-leaf plot format where:
- "Stem" represents the tens digit, and
- "Leaf" represents the ones digit (with each leaf unit being 1 point).
The stem-and-leaf data is as follows:
- 33 (representing 33 points)
- 66 (representing 66 points)
- 1233444 (representing 12, 13, 14, 14 points)
- 5555666789 (representing 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 6, 7, 8, 9 points)
- 0222233444 (representing 0, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 4, 4 points)
- 89 (representing 8, 9 points)
The question asks for the median score of the player based on this data.
Let's now calculate the median from this stem-and-leaf plot.
To Find the Median:
- We need to list all the data points in numerical order.
- Then, find the middle value of the ordered data.
Let me calculate the median for you. numpy as np
Reconstruct the full data from the stem-and-leaf plot
data = [ 33, 66, 12, 13, 14, 14, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 89 ]
Sort the data
data_sorted = sorted(data)
Find the median
median_index = len(data_sorted) // 2
If the number of data points is odd, the median is the middle element
If even, it's the average of the two middle elements
if len(data_sorted) % 2 == 1: median = data_sorted[median_index] else: median = (data_sorted[median_index - 1] + data_sorted[median_index]) / 2
median, data_sortedThe median score for the player is 6.0 points.
Here is the full sorted list of points scored:
[0, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 6, 7, 8, 9, 12, 13, 14, 14, 33, 66, 89]
Since there are 24 data points (an even number), the median is the average of the two middle numbers: 6 and 6, resulting in a median of 6.
Do you have any further questions or would you like additional details about how this was calculated?
Here are 5 related questions that might interest you:
- How do you interpret a stem-and-leaf plot?
- How does the median differ from the mean and mode?
- What are some other ways to calculate the central tendency of data?
- How do you handle outliers in data when calculating the median?
- Can you calculate the range or standard deviation for this dataset?
Tip: When working with stem-and-leaf plots, always remember that the "leaf unit" tells you how to interpret the numbers. In this case, each leaf represents 1 point.
