Answer 1

There is more variability on glasses of doctor B's dataset than the glasses of doctor A's dataset

The doctors' mean absolute deviation on glasses

The dataset of doctor A is given as:

643 634 670 658 636 624 641 655 649 629

The dataset of doctor B is given as:

651 625 622 624 631 621 653 647 646 646

Using a statistical calculator, we have:

Doctor A

• Doctor A: Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD) = 11.28
• Doctor B: Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD) = 12

Hence, the mean absolute deviation is 11.28 for Doctor A’s and 12 for Doctor B’s data set on glasses

The variation of the two data

In a dataset, the larger the mean absolute deviations value, the larger the variation.

By comparison, 12 is greater than 11.28

Hence, there is more variability on glasses of doctor B's dataset than the glasses of doctor A's dataset
