Question

My brother is in 6th grade and needs help with his math. I tried to help but I can't find any answers on it.

Answer 1

Answer:

Question 1) 17.4

Question 2) 1.7

Question 3) 2.8

Question 4) 8.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean absolute deviation is the average distance between the data points from the set to the mean point of the data set. It shows the variability in data or how much the data points are spread.

method to calculate Mean absolute deviation:

a. calculate mean

b. calculate absolute deviation of each data point

c. add all the deviations

d. divide absolute deviation by number of points

mean absolute deviation = ∑l$x_{i}$-xl / n

The given problem has four sub-parts

Solution 1:

Mean= (78+99+90+80+55+56+102+88+60+42)/10

            =  750/10

            =  75

Mean absolute deviation= ( I 78-75 I + I 99-75 I+I 90-75 I + I 80-75 I +

                                             I 55-75 I + I 56-75 I + I 102-75 I + I 88- 75 I +

                                             I 60-75 I + I 42-75 I) /10

         =  (174)/10

        =  17.4

Solution 2:

Mean = (10+13+7+12+9+8+12+10+11+13)/10

              =  (105)/10

              = 10.5

Mean absolute deviation = ( I 10-10.5 I + I 13-10.5 I + I 7-10.5 I + I 12-10.5 I +

                                              I 9-10.5 I + I 8-10.5 I + I 12-10.5 I + I 10-10.5 I +

                                               I 11-10.5 I + I 3-10.5 I) /10

       =   17/10

       = 1.7

Solution 3:

Mean= (1+7+10+5+3+3+6+12+9+4)/10

            =  60/10

            =  6

Mean absolute deviation  = ( I 1-6 I + I 7-6 I + I 10-6 I + I 5-6 I + I 3-6 I +

                                               I 3-6 I + I 6-6 I + I 12- 6 I + I 9-6 I + I 4-6 I) /10

         = (28)/10

        =  2.8

Solution 4:

Mean= (30+46+25+45+18+25+15+32+40+24)/10

            =  300/10

            =  30

Mean absolute deviation  = ( I 30-30 I + I 46-30 I + I 25-30 I + I 45-30 I +

                                               I 18-30 I + I 25-30 I + I 15-30 I + I 32-30 I +

                                               I 40-30 I + I 24-30 I) /10

         = (86)/10

        =  8.6
