Question

Find the range for the set of data 24, 30, 17, 22, 22

Answer 1

Answer:

13

Step-by-step explanation:

The range of the data set can be defined as: max-min, and in a sorted data  set, the min should be the first value, and the max should be the last value. We don't necessarily need to sort the data here, since we're just looking for two values which we can easily compare to other numbers without having them in order. Although it's important to note when looking for stuff like the median, first, and third quartile you should sort the data.

With that being said, let's look for the min and max! So by looking at the data set, you should be able to determine that the min (minimum) value is 17, and that the max (maximum) value is 30.

This means the range is defined as: 30 - 17 = 13

Answer 2

$\huge\text{Hey there!}$

$\huge\textbf{Question reads....}$

$\text{Find the range for the set of data 24, 30, 17, 22, 22}$

$\huge\textbf{What does \boxed{range} mean in math?}$

$\boxed{Range}\rightarrow\text{is the DIFFERENCE between the biggest number and the}\\\text{smallest number.}$

$\huge\textbf{How do you find the \boxed{range}?}$

$\text{You find the biggest number \& subtract it from the smallest number.}$

$\huge\textbf{Equation:}$

$\text{24, 30, 17, 22, 22}$

$\huge\textbf{The \boxed{\mathsf{\mathsf{biggest}}} number }\huge\boxed{\downarrow}$

$\text{30}$

$\huge\textbf{The \boxed{\mathsf{\mathsf{smallest}}} number }\huge\boxed{\downarrow}$

$\text{17}$

$\huge\textbf{Equation:}$

$\rm{30 - 17}$

$\huge\textbf{Simplify it:}$

$\large\text{Start at 30 and go DOWN 17 spaces to the \boxed{left} and you will}\\\large\text{have your answer. }$

$\huge\textbf{Therefore, your answer should be:}$

$\huge\boxed{\mathsf{13}}\huge\checkmark$

$\huge\text{Good luck on your assignment \& enjoy your day!}$
