The table shows the heights that four people parachute from an airplane. What is the range of the heights? Write your answer as a decimal or fraction in simplest form.

The answer is 1.55

Explanation:

The he first step to find the range is to make all the values either fractions or decimal/integer numbers. Below I show the process to make all the numbers decimals/integers

Height in miles

2.75: This number is decimal because of this it does not have to be modified

: This number includes a rational number and a fraction to make this just one number write the first number as a fraction, multiply, and then divide the top number by the low number (denominator).

× =

: This number is a fraction to simplify it divide the nominator by the denominator:

: Write the integer as a fraction and then simplify

×

Now, from these values, the higher one is 2.75 and the lowest is 1.2, to find the range find the difference between these two numbers 2.75 - 1.2 = 1.55

c

step-by-step explanation:

constant of proportionality = 3 and the equation is c = 3p.

step-by-step explanation:

c = kp   where c = amount of caffeine in mg., p = oz of pepsi and k is the constant of proportionality.

substituting the values given:

24 = 8k

k = 3.

the same value of k will be obtained if we substitute the other given values.
