Question

Calculate the range:

i. Half of the children are more than (x) cm tall.
ii. 75% of the children are less than (x) cm tall.

A. (x = 65)
B. (x = 70)
C. (x = 75)
D. (x = 80)

Answer 1

To calculate the range based on the given information, subtract the appropriate values according to the conditions.

Step-by-step explanation:

The range can be calculated based on the given information:

i. If half of the children are more than (x) cm tall, we can calculate the range by subtracting (x) from the maximum height of the children. For example, if (x = 65), and the maximum height is 80 cm, then the range would be 80 - 65 = 15 cm.

ii. If 75% of the children are less than (x) cm tall, we can calculate the range by subtracting the minimum height from (x). For example, if (x = 70) and the minimum height is 60 cm, then the range would be 70 - 60 = 10 cm.
