Answer:

Between 30 and 33 mph or, simply

Range: [30,33]

Explanation:

A Range is all possible values of a certain variable or piece of information commonly notated by a minimum and maximum. In this example, our variable is the speed traveled by drivers in a road. We are provided a minimum of 30 mph as this is the speed limit, and told that drivers may speed up to a maximum of 3 mph faster ( or 33 mph).

Therefore, our minimum would be 30, maximum would be 33, and Range would be [30, 33].

Brackets are used here because both our minimum and maximum values are included in the range.

HOPE THIS HELPS!!
