Question

Cory recorded the following values when he measured the length of leaves from one tree. Length in centimeters: 8, 11, 9, 10, 10, 9, 6. In what range of data is the length of the next leaf that Cory measures most likely to fall? A. 1 to 5 cm. B. 6 to 11 cm. C. 9 to 10 cm. D. 12 to 18 cm.

Answer 1

The range of the values given is the value of the number that is between the smallest number and the largest number. The range is 6 cm to 11 cm. Thus, the length of Cory's next leaf will most likely fall in the values 6 to 11. Thus, the answer is letter B.

Answer 2

Answer: B. 6 to 11 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Cory recorded the following values when he measured the length of leaves from one tree.

Length in centimeters: 8, 11, 9, 10, 10, 9, 6.

We know that the range of any data = the smallest data value to the largest data value  

Here in the given data the largest value = 11 cm and the smallest value = 6 cm

Therefore, the range of the given data is = 6 cm to 11 cm.

Therefore, B is the right answer, the range of data is 6 cm to 11 cm.
