... Finding the range The range of a set of data is a measure of how the data is spread across the distribution. To find the range we subtract the lowest value in the set from the highest value. Range = highest value – lowest value When the range is small; the values are similar in size. When the range ...

Sec 13.1 Arithmethic and Geometric Sequences
... Often in applications we will want the sum of a certain number of terms in an arithmetic sequence. The story is told of a grade school teacher In the 1700's that wanted to keep her class busy while she graded papers so she asked them to add up all of the numbers from 1 to 100. These numbers are an ...

... of the preceding terms. This relationship is often referred to as a recurrence. For example, the sequence of positive odd numbers may be defined by a 1 = 1 and a n+1 = a n + 2, for n ≥ 1. The initial term is a 1 = 1, and the recurrence tells us that we need to add two to each term to obtain the next ...

... We see from this truth table that (p ∧ q) ∨ r and p ∧ (q ∨ r) do not represent equivalent propositions. For example, if p is false, q is true and r is true, then (p ∧ q) ∨ r is true, but p ∧ (q ∨ r) is false. We would need to resolve this ambiguity in some way if we were to admit expressions such as ...

We set a table starting at 10 for L with increments of 10 and starting at 3 for W with increments of 8. The numbers located in the first two columns are each substituted in ...

Ambiguity
Ambiguity is a type of uncertainty of meaning in which several interpretations are plausible. It is thus an attribute of any idea or statement whose intended meaning cannot be definitively resolved according to a rule or process with a finite number of steps. (The ambi- part of the name reflects an idea of ""two"" as in two meanings.)The concept of ambiguity is generally contrasted with vagueness. In ambiguity, specific and distinct interpretations are permitted (although some may not be immediately apparent), whereas with information that is vague, it is difficult to form any interpretation at the desired level of specificity.Context may play a role in resolving ambiguity. For example, the same piece of information may be ambiguous in one context and unambiguous in another.
