To find the range of Student 1's results, we need to follow these steps:
1. Identify the minimum value: Among Student 1's results, we look for the smallest value.
2. Identify the maximum value: Among Student 1's results, we look for the largest value.
3. Calculate the range: The range is found by subtracting the minimum value from the maximum value.
Let's list Student 1's results first:
- Trial 1: 3.25 mm
- Trial 2: 3.17 mm
- Trial 3: 3.26 mm
- Trial 4: 3.64 mm
- Trial 5: 3.44 mm
1. Identifying the minimum value:
The minimum value among the results is [tex]\( \text{min} = 3.17 \)[/tex] mm.
2. Identifying the maximum value:
The maximum value among the results is [tex]\( \text{max} = 3.64 \)[/tex] mm.
3. Calculating the range:
The range is computed as:
[tex]\[
\text{Range} = \text{max} - \text{min} = 3.64\ \text{mm} - 3.17\ \text{mm} = 0.47\ \text{mm}
\][/tex]
Therefore, the range of Student 1's results is [tex]\(0.47\)[/tex] mm.
