Question

Help me find the mean absolute deviation

Answer 1

Answer:

D. $1.63

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean: 5 + 8 + 11 + 7.50 + 8.25 + 9.75 + 10.25 + 10.75 = 70.5/8 = 8.8125 or just 8.8

8.8 - 5 = 3.8

8.8 - 8 = 0.8

8.8 - 11 = 2.2

8.8 - 7.5 = 1.3

8.8 - 8.25 = 0.55

8.8 - 9.75 = 0.95

8.8 - 10.25 = 1.45

8.8 - 10.75 = 1.95

Mean Absolute Deviation: 3.8 + 0.8 + 2.2 + 1.3 + 0.55 + 0.95 + 1.45 + 1.95 = 13/8 = 1.625

now all we need to do is to round 1.625, and we would end up having $1.63.

~hope this helps!~

would highly appreciate it if you would mark me the brainliest. :)
