A set S = {x, -8, -5, -1, 1, 6, 9, y} with elements arranged in increasing order. If the median and the mean of the set are the same, what is the value of |x|-|y|?	Choose one.
A) -1
B) Cannot be determined
C) 1
D) 0
E) 2
Median of the set = (-1+1)/2= 
<gadget id="calculator">(-1+1)/2</gadget>
<output>0</output>
0   As per statement, Mean of the set= 0   Mean of the set   |y|- |x| +16-14 = 0 (where x is negative n y is positive)   |y|- |x| = -2   So the absolute difference between two numbers is 2   Answer 2
<result>E</result>
