Q. Santiago has the following data:r,1,1,1,1If the range is 2, which number could r be?Choices:(A)10(B)3
Arrange Data Set: Arrange the given data set including r in ascending order if possible. Since we don't know r yet, we consider the existing numbers: 1,1,1,1.
Understand Range: Understand the definition of range. Range is the difference between the maximum and minimum values in the data set. Given range is 2.
Calculate Possible Values: Calculate possible values for r. To have a range of 2, r must be either 2 more or 2 less than the existing numbers. Since all existing numbers are 1, r could be −1 or 3.
Check Given Choices: Check the choices given: (A) 10 (B) 3. From our calculation, r could be 3.
