16.

Step-by-step explanation:

The largest numerical value present in the set P is 10, then x is 4+10 = 14. Then the set P is

P = {14, 4, 6, 10, - 2, 14, 6, 1, 14}.

Now, the range is the difference between the greatest and the smallest element in the set. The greatest number is 14 and the smallest is - 2, then the range is

14 - (-2) = 14+2 = 16.

Then the range of the set P is 16.
