A is true, but R is false. Explanation: A is true: With an odd number of observations 11, the median is the middle value after arranging the data (11 + 1)/2 = 6th value. R is false: The listed data has 7 values, not 11. Sorted: 5, 7, 9, 10, 10, 11, 13. The middle 4th value is 10, so the median is 10, not 13.
