You find the mean absolute deviation by first finding the mean, and then subtracting all the values in the data set from that, creating a new data set, and then you find the mean of this new data set.

Example:

3, 2, 5, 9, 4

Mean(add them all, divide by how many there are): (3 + 2 + 5 + 9 + 4)/5 = 4.6

Subtract 4.6 from/to all the values:

4.6 - 3 = 1.6
4.6 - 2 = 2.6
5 - 4.6 = 0.4
9 - 4.6 = 4.4
4.6 - 4 = 0.6

Find the mean of these values:

(1.6 + 2.6 + 0.4 + 4.4 + 0.6)/5 = 1.92

So the mean absolute deviation is 1.92.

Vinvika [58]

Answer:

1.2Litres

Question:

Wes mixed different juices to make fruit punch. He filled one-half of the punch bowl with orange juice. Then he filled half of the remaining space with grape juice. Finally, he filled the rest of the punch bowl with 300 mL300\text{ mL}300 mL300, space, m, L of cherry juice. How many liters of fruit punch did Wes make?

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total punch bowl be = P

Portion of Orange juice = ½ of total punch bowl

= ½ × P = P/2

Portion of grape = ½ of the remaining space

Remaining space = P - P/2 = P/2

Portion of grape = ½ × P/2 = P/4

The rest of the punch bowl is for cherry = 300mL

P/2 - P/4 = 300

(2P - P)/4 = 300

P/4 = 300

P = 300×4

P = 1200mL

1mL = 10^(-3)L

P = 1.2 ×10³ × 10^(-3)L

P = 1.2L

Wes made 1.2liters of fruit punch.

How does paying off the balance monthly help a credit card user avoid finance charges?
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

Credit cards allows us to make purchases today and pay for them later. If it takes us longer than a month to pay off our balance then we will have to pay an extra fee in the form of a finance charge.

Since finance charges is the way of charging us by the credit card issuing authority for carrying a balance on our credit card and not paying it off completely at the end of each month.

Thus, the simple way to avoid finance charges is to not carry a balance and this can be done by paying off the carrying amount on the credit card at the end of each month.

Evaluate f(0) for f(x) = x2 -7x-30
Nostrana [21]
Just plug in the 0 as it says in f(x) = f(0) into the equation.

f(x) = x² - 7x - 30

f(0) = 0² - 7(0) - 30

f(0) = 0 - 0 - 30

f(0) = -30

hope this helps, God bless!
