Example Question #2091 : Algebra 1

Find the range of the following set of numbers:

1,1,3,7,7,8,9,12,15

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To find the range, simply subtract the smallest number from the largest. Thus,

Note that even thought he smallest number, 1, appears twice in our set, we don't subtract it twice from the largest number.

Example Question #2092 : Algebra 1

Find the range of the following dataset:  

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The range is the difference between the highest and lowest numbers.

The highest number is 7.  The lowest number is negative nine.  

Subtract these numbers.

The range is:  

Example Question #2093 : Algebra 1

Find the range of the following data set:

10, 9, 11, 10, 8, 4, 10, 7, 8

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To find the range of a data set, we calculate the difference of the smallest and the largest number within the set.  Given the set

10, 9, 11, 10, 8, 4, 10, 7, 8

the smallest number is 4 and the largest number is 11.  The difference of these two numbers is 7.  Therefore, the range of this data set is 7.

Example Question #2094 : Algebra 1

Find the range of the following data set:

13, 4, 6, 3, 9, 3, 11, 11, 3

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To find the range of a data set, find the difference of the smallest and largest number.  Given the data set

13, 4, 6, 3, 9, 3, 11, 11, 3

the smallest number is 3 and the largest is 13.  The difference of these two numbers is 10.  Therefore, the range of the data set is 10.

Example Question #2095 : Algebra 1

What is the range of the dataset?  

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The range is the difference of the highest and lowest numbers in the dataset.  The x and y variables are not defined. This means that they can represent any number. 

Therefore, we do not know what values are the highest and lowest in the dataset.

The answer is:  

Example Question #2096 : Algebra 1

Find the range of the following data set:

15, 9, 11, 14, 12, 11, 13, 11, 12

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To find the range of a data set, you find the difference of the smallest and largest number within the set.

 

Given the set

15, 9, 11, 14, 12, 11, 13, 11, 12

the smallest number is 9 and the largest number is 15.  The difference of these two numbers is 6.

 

Therefore, the range of the data set is 6.

Example Question #2097 : Algebra 1

Find the range of the following data set:

33, 7, 22, 1, 29, 5, 13, 7

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To find the range of a data set, you find the difference of the smallest and largest number within the set.

 

Given the set

33, 7, 22, 1, 29, 5, 13, 7

the smallest number is 1 and the largest number is 33.  The difference of these two numbers is 32.

 

Therefore, the range of the data set is 32.

Example Question #2098 : Algebra 1

Find the range of the following set of numbers:

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To find the range of any set, find the highest value in the set, and the lowest value in the set, then calculate the difference between them by subtracting the lowest value from the highest value.  The best answer is:

Example Question #2099 : Algebra 1

Find the range of the following set of numbers:

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To find the range of any set, find the highest value in the set, and the lowest value in the set, then calculate the difference between them by subtracting the lowest value from the highest value.  The best answer is:

Example Question #2100 : Algebra 1
