Find the:
(b) Mean
(c) MAD (in one decimal place only)

Respuesta :

Answer:

Mean = 52  MAD = 47.3

Step-by-step explanation:

mean  = 50 + 100+ 75 + 80 + 40 + 60+ 50+ 20 +25 +30 +42  / amount of data = 572 / 11 = 52    MAD = rearrange numbers = 100+ 80+75+ 60 + 50 + 50+ 42 + 40+30+ 25+20 = 25 + 5 +15+10+8+2+10+5+5 = 85  / amount of data = 85/9= 9.44 then distance on number line each way = 9.44/2 = 4.72  = MAD =52-4.72 = 47.28

The mean and the MAD (mean absolute deviation) of the given data are 52 and 19.4.

What is mean and MAD?

Mean is the average number of the given terms and can be calculated as the ratio of the sum of the terms to the total number of terms.

mean = sum of the terms / total number of terms

MAD refers to the Mean absolute deviation which is the average distance between each data and the mean.

MAD =  [tex]\frac{1}{n} \rm |X_{i} - X|[/tex]

mean = sum of the terms / total number of terms

[tex]= \frac{50 + 100 + 75 + 80 + 40 + 60 + 50+ 20+ 25+ 30+ 42 }{11}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{572}{11}[/tex]

= 52

Mean = 52

MAD =  [tex]\frac{1}{n} \rm |X_{i} - X|[/tex]

         =  2+ 48 + 23 +28+ 12+8+2+32+27+22+10 / 11

         =  214 / 11

Mean absolute deviation = 19.45

Therefore, the mean and the MAD (mean absolute deviation) of the given data are 52 and 19.4.
