range = highest value- lowest value
in a set of -ve int highest value is less than -ve of lowest value.so always +ve
mean of a set of -ve value will always be a -ve
statement2) if median is -ve than there are three possible set
1st :- the highest value is -ve
2nd:- bth highest and lowest value is -ve
range will be a +ve no.
mean will be always less than range.
if we will solve this one in no. line then it will be much easier.
