c. 31.5
d. 30

Respuesta :

Answer:

d. 30

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the 35th percentile of this data set is shown below:

Before that first we have to series the number in ascending number

S. No          Numbers

1                       26

2                      29

3                      30

4                      30

5                      31

6                      32

7                      34

8                      35

9                       36

Now use the formula

Here n = 9

Percentile = 100

[tex]= \frac{35(9 + 1)}{100} \\\\[/tex]

= 3.5th

= 3th + 0.5 (4th - 3th)

= 3th + 0.5 (30 - 30)

= 3th + 0

= 30
