Answer: 7.22
(note: this is a result after rounding. The result before rounding was 7.21875)
========================================================
Explanation:
Given Set of Values = {22, 16, 39, 35, 19, 34, 20, 26}
Add up the values: 22+16+39+35+19+34+20+26 = 211
Divide that sum by 8 as there are 8 values: 211/8 = 26.375
The mean is 26.375
Now subtract the mean from each data value. Apply the absolute value to ensure the difference is never negative
|22 - 26.375| = 4.375
|16 - 26.375| = 10.375
|39 - 26.375| = 12.625
|35 - 26.375| = 8.625
|19 - 26.375| = 7.375
|34 - 26.375| = 7.625
|20 - 26.375| = 6.375
|26 - 26.375| = 0.375
Add up those results
4.375+10.375+12.625+8.625+7.375+7.625+6.375+0.375 = 57.75
Then divide by 8
57.75/8 = 7.21875
The mean absolute deviation of the prices is 7.21875
Rounded to two decimal places, it is 7.22
Since we're talking about money, it makes sense to round to the nearest penny.
Answer:
number 2 is SSS
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume the following:
Brad has been in the soccer team for b years.
Scot has been in the soccer team for s years.
"The number of years that brad has been on the soccer team is 2 less than 5 times the number of years that Scott has"
means: b=5s-2
"in total,the boys have been on the soccer team for 10 years."
means: b+s=10
so we have the equations:
i) b=5s-2
ii) b+s=10
substitute b in ii) with 5s-2, as they are equal, from i
(5s-2)+s=10
5s-2+s=10
6s=12
s=2,
then , from b+s=10, b=8
Answer: Brad has been in the team for 8 years.
