Question

the box plot below represents some data set. what is the range of the data?

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the maximum and minimum values

From the box - plot, the minimum value \(x_{\text{min}} = 38\) and the maximum value \(x_{\text{max}}=66\)

Step2: Calculate the range

The formula for the range \(R\) of a data - set is \(R=x_{\text{max}}-x_{\text{min}}\). Substitute \(x_{\text{min}} = 38\) and \(x_{\text{max}}=66\) into the formula: \(R = 66 - 38\)

Answer:

\(28\)
