A company is investigating how long it takes employees, t t\,t minutes, to get to an event. They produce a table below of coded times, x x\,x minutes, for a random sample of 50 employees.

Coded Time (minutes)Frequency
0<x≤50 < x \leq 50<x≤51
5<x≤105 < x \leq 105<x≤109
10<x≤1510 < x \leq 1510<x≤1519
15<x≤2515 < x \leq 2515<x≤2514
25<x≤4025 < x \leq 4025<x≤407
a.

Use linear interpolation to estimate the median of the coded times.

[2]
b.

Estimate the standard deviation of the coded times.

[2]
c.

The coded data was calculated using the formula: x=t−202\displaystyle x = \frac{t - 20}{2}x=2t−20​

Calculate the median and the standard deviation of ttt.
