Which of the statements below is true for the following set of numbers?
20, 15, 50, 85, 75, 60
A)The range is 70 and the midrange is 35
B)The range and the midrange are equal.
C)The range is 70 and the midrange is 50
D)The range is 85 and the midrange is 55
The range is defined as the difference between the maximum and minimum values in a set of numbers.
In this case, the maximum value is 85 and the minimum value is 15. Therefore, the range is 85 - 15 = 70.
The midrange is defined as the average of the maximum and minimum values in a set of numbers. In this case, the midrange is (85 + 15) / 2 = 50.
Therefore, the correct statement is:
C) The range is 70 and the midrange is 50
