Your friend swims on the school team. In her first four races, her times are 26.3, 28.4, 25.6 and 29.1. Which time listed for her next race would make the range larger? A. 25.2 B. 26.1 C. 28.0 D. 29.1

A.) 25.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Times in first four races :

26.3, 28.4, 25.6 and 29.1

The range of a list of values is the difference between the maximum and minimum value of the list or data.

In her first four races :

Range = 29.1 - 25.6 = 3.5

Value of range in her first four races = 3.5

In other to make the range larger:

Either she has a value less than the least time in her previous four races or she has a value greater than the maximum value of her previous race in her next race.

With a time of 25.2 in her next race : least value in the data will be 25.2

Range = 29.1 - 25.2 = 3.9

With a time of 26.1 in her next race :

Range = 29.1 - 25.6 = 3.5

With a time of 28.0 in her next race :

Range = 29.1 - 25.6 = 3.5

With a time of 29.1 in her next race :

Range = 29.1 - 25.6 = 3.5
