Range - Algebra II

Card 0 of 20

Question

Given the set of test scores, what is the range?

Answer

The range is the difference between the smallest number and the largest number. The smallest value is 77, and the largest is 98.

98 – 77 = 21

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

The range of the following data set is 18. What is a possible value for ?

Answer

Arrange the known values in the set in numerical order: {–5, –2, 1, 3, 5, 7, 7, 10}. The range is the difference between the largest value and smallest value.

x must be either the largest or the smallest value in the set.

range = x – smallest value

18 = x – (–5)

18 = x + 5

13 = x

OR

range = largest value – x

18 = 10 – x

8 = –x

–8 = x

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

Question

What is the range of the set ?

Answer

The range is defined as the difference between the highest and lowest numbers in a set. Here, the highest number is and the lowest is .

Therefore, the range is

is the mode, is the mean, and 6 is the median.

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

For a set of numbers where

and the set has the following values:

Determine the value of .

Answer

{6,6,6,7,7,7,7,13,13}

median=7 so b=7

mean=8 so the sum of the set is 72.

72-4(7)=44

44=3a+2c

Range=7 so c-a=7

44=3a+2(a+7)

a=6 and c=13.

Question

Suppose the ages of a college chemistry class were recorded and the ages reported were as follows:

What is the range of this data?

Answer

The range is calculated by subtracting the smallest value from the largest value: .

Question

Observe the following table:

ClientAge
Marsha14
Tom13
Alice65
Brandy34
Candy23
James43
Brady19

Find the range for the ages of the clients in the table?

Answer

Let us start by identifying the maximum and minimum values of the list of values.

The maximum is 65 and the minimum is 13.

The range is computed by substracting the minimum from the maximum, which gives us:

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

Observe the following list of terms:

The range of this list of numbers is . Which value can take?

Answer

The range of this list of numbers is 10 which is obtained by doing 20-10.

This means that 20 and 10 are respectively the maximum and minimum values of the list of numbers.

Therefore x has to be a value between 10 and 20.

17 being the only value within this range it is therefore the right answer.

Question

What is the range of the following data set?

Answer

What is the range of the following data set?

The range is found by taking the difference between the largest and smallest value in the data set.

Largest: 103

Smallest: 1

So our range is

The range of the dataset is the difference of the highest and lowest numbers. Determine the highest number. The highest number in the set is .

The lowest number is .

Subtract these numbers.

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

Find the range of the dataset:

Answer

The range is the difference of the highest and lowest number. In order to determine the highest and lowest fraction in the dataset, we must convert each fraction to a like denominator and compare.

The least common denominator for these fractions is . Reconvert all fractions with a denominator of 24 in order to compare numerators. Multiply the numerators with what was multiplied on the denominator to get the least common denominator.

The largest number is: or

The smallest number is: or

Subtract these numbers.

The range is:
