Let X={x1,x2,…,xn}X = \{x_1, x_2, \dots, x_n\}X={x1​,x2​,…,xn​} be a sorted dataset of nnn real numbers. We add a single new value yyy (which could be an extreme outlier) to XXX to form a new dataset YYY of size n+1n+1n+1. Which of the following statements about the median of the new dataset, denoted by Med(Y)\text{Med}(Y)Med(Y), is/are mathematically guaranteed to be true?
