Answer 1

To calculate the range of the dataset, you subtract the smallest value from the largest value.

The dataset is:
8, 15, 13, 10, 38, 19, 35, 7, 4, 10, 18, 21, 19, 33

1. Identify the largest value: 38
2. Identify the smallest value: 4
3. Calculate the range:
   \[ \text{Range} = \text{Largest value} - \text{Smallest value} = 38 - 4 = 34 \]

So the range of the dataset is 34.
