Answer:

The statement is always true

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,

x, x+2, x+6, x+10

There are even number of terms. So for the median we add the two middle terms and divide it by 2.

Median = (x+2+x+6)/2

= (2x+8)/2

= 2(x+4)/2

= x+4

As we know that an odd number is always odd number if we add some even number to it.

In the question, x is an odd integer so, if we add 4 then it would be again an odd integer. Therefore, the median is also an odd integer.

The statement is always true.
