Answer 1

To determine the range of the data set, you need to find the difference between the maximum and minimum values.

1. Identify the maximum and minimum values:

   • Maximum: 49 miles
   • Minimum: 28 miles

2. Calculate the range: \[ \text{Range} = \text{Maximum} - \text{Minimum} = 49 - 28 = 21 \text{ miles} \]

So, the range of this data set is 21 miles.
