Question

You are planting seeds in a vegetable garden. According to the instructions on the seed​ packet, the seeds should be placed​ 12" apart.​ However, you would be content if the seeds were within an inch of that measurement on either end​ (i.e., between​ 11" and​ 13" apart). This is an example of​ ________.

a. the range of variationb. basic corrective actionc. benchmarkingd. deviation disparitye. a feedforward control

Answer 1

A) the range of variation

Step-by-step explanation:

In statistics, the range is a measure of variation which includes the highest value and the lowest value, in other words, the extreme points.

In this case, the range of variation represents the extreme points at which it is OK to plant our seeds. If we plant seeds more than 13" apart then we aren't doing it correctly, the same if we pant them less than 11" apart.
