QuestionIn the sport of American football, teams attempt to advance a ball towards a goal (end zone) by throwing (passing) the ball or by running with the ball (rushing). The position called running back is usually responsible for rushing. A college coach is evaluating two running backs by looking at the number of yards gained for each attempt in the last game. The following table shows the number of yards gained in each of the last 6 rushing attempts for the two players. \begin{tabular}{|l|c|c|c|c|c|c|} \hline & Rush \#1 & Rush \#2 & Rush 3 & Rush \#4 & Rush \#5 & Rush \#6 \\ \hline Player G & 0 & 1 & 5 & 0 & 6 & 3 \\ \hline Player T & -1 & 11 & 9 & 11 & 19 & 2 \\ \hline \end{tabular}
Question 6/106 / 10 What is the range of yards per rushing attempt for each player? \begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|c|} \hline & Average & Median & Range \\ \hline Player G & 2.5 & 2 & \square \\ \hline Player T & 8.5 & 10 & \square \\ \hline \end{tabular}

Studdy Solution
Calculate the range for Player T:
Range = Maximum - Minimum
19(1)=19+1=20 19 - (-1) = 19 + 1 = 20
The range of yards per rushing attempt is:
Player G: 6 \boxed{6}
Player T: 20 \boxed{20}
