Pete’s grade on a test was within 5 points of his class average of 94. What is his range of grades on the test?
Answer: 89 to 99
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the range of data is given by :-
\(\overline{x}\pm E\), where \(\overline{x}\) ios the average of data and E is the margin of error.
Given : Margin of error = \(\pm 5\)
Class average = \(94\)
Then, the range of grades on the test will be :-
\(94\pm 5=(94-5,\ 94+5)=(89,\ 99)\)
Hence, the range of grades on the test = 89 to 99
