Example Question #125 : Data Analysis And Probability
Find the range of the following data set:
Find the range of the following data set:
To find the range, first put the numbers in increasing order
Next, find the difference between our first and last terms
Thus, our range is 87 because there is a "distance" of 87 between our biggest and smallest terms.
Example Question #681 : Isee Upper Level (Grades 9 12) Mathematics Achievement
For his last six math tests, Josh scored 92, 80, 88, 94, 97, and 95. What is the range for his test scores?
In order to find the range, you will need to first find the smallest and largest number in the set.
For this set of numbers, the smallest number is , and the largest number is .
To find the range, take the difference of these two numbers:
Example Question #682 : Isee Upper Level (Grades 9 12) Mathematics Achievement
Michael received the following scores on his last four French tests: 65, 58, 69, 58. What is the range of his test scores?
In order to find the range, you must first identify the smallest and the largest number of the data set.
The smallest number for this set is , and the largest number is .
Take the difference of the two numbers to find the range.
Example Question #131 : Data Analysis And Probability
Over the course of seven games, Joanna scored the following number of points for her high school's varsity basketball team:
.
What is the range of the number of points she scored?
In order to find the range, you must first identify the smallest and the largest number of the set.
The smallest number of the set is , while the largest number is .
Take the difference between these two to find the range.
Example Question #131 : Data Analysis And Probability
Use the following data set to answer the question:
Find the range.
To find the range of a data set, we will find the smallest number and the largest number. Then, we will find the difference of those two numbers.
So, given the set
we can see the smallest number is 3 and the largest number is 9. Now, we will find the difference.
Therefore, the range of the data set is 6.
Example Question #685 : Isee Upper Level (Grades 9 12) Mathematics Achievement
Use the following data set to answer the question:
Find the range.
To find the range of a data set, we will find the smallest number and the largest number. Then, we will find the difference of those two numbers.
So, given the set
we can see the smallest number is 2 and the largest number is 9. Now, we will find the difference.
Therefore, the range of the data set is 7.
Example Question #686 : Isee Upper Level (Grades 9 12) Mathematics Achievement
Determine the range:
The range is the difference between the largest and smallest numbers.
The largest number is:
The smallest number is:
Subtract both quantities.
The answer is:
Example Question #683 : Isee Upper Level (Grades 9 12) Mathematics Achievement
Define set . Which of the following sets could we define to be set so that ?
For to be a true statement, sets and cannot have any elements in common. We can eliminate four of these choices of by noting that in each, there is one element (underlined) also in :
However, shares no elements with , so their intersection is by definition. This is the correct choice.
Example Question #684 : Isee Upper Level (Grades 9 12) Mathematics Achievement
Given a set , which of the following sets could we assign to such that ?
None of the choices answer the question correctly.
is the union of the sets, i.e. the set of all elements in , , or both.
For , must include all elements in that are not in , or . This allows us to eliminate , which excludes 5, and , which excludes 2.
Also, cannot include any element not in . This allows us to eliminate , which includes 12.
This leaves .
If , then
.
This is the correct choice.
Example Question #685 : Isee Upper Level (Grades 9 12) Mathematics Achievement
Examine the sequence:
What number goes into the circle?
Each element is obtained by adding a number to the previous one; the number added increases by 1 each time:
- this number replaces the square
- this number replaces the circle
