The mean of a data sample can be found by adding all the terms in the data sample and dividing the result by the number of terms. In the first case we have the following data sample:
The mean of this sample is:
The mean absolute deviation is the sum of the differences between each data value and the mean, divided by the number of data values, the formula is:
Therefore, we must calculate the positive difference between each value and the mean, add them up, and divide the result by the number of data points in the sample. In the case of the first sample we get:
Solving the operation:
If done this way, all the results for each data set must be correct.
The answer is B because the mean is 131.6 and the median is 36, and obviously 131.6 is the greater value. Hope this helps! If I am wrong, someone in the comments please correct me
Oh my goodness ! You were doing such an absolutely beautiful job,
as far as you went, but then you ran into some rough road and quit.
You've got the correct expressions for the ages of the three people:
-- Will . . . w
-- Ben . . . w+3
-- Jan . . . 2(w+3)
You slipped up when you expanded Jan's age: 2(w+3) = <u>2w + 6</u> ,
and it was all down hill from there.
Let's do it again, together:
-- Will . . . w
-- Ben . . . w + 3
-- Jan . . . 2w + 6
Total: (w + w + 2w) + (3 + 6) = 4w + 9
So the equation is: <em><u>4w + 9 = 41</u></em>
Now you're supposed to solve it.
Subtract 9 from each side: 4w = 32
Divide each side by 4: <u>w = 8</u>
-- Will = w . . . . . 8 y.o.
-- Ben = w+3 . . . 11 y.o.
-- Jan = 2(w+3) . . 22 y.o.
When will Jan be twice as old as Will ?
That'll happen in 'x' years.
At that time, Will will be (8+x) and Jan will be (22+x),
and her age will be double Will's age.
22 + x = 2(8 + x)
22 + x = 16 + 2x
Subtract 'x' from each side: 22 = 16 + x
Subtract 16 from each side: <em> 6 = x</em>
<u>Check:</u>
In 6 years, Jan will be (22+6) = 28,
and Will will be (8+6) = 14 .
28 = twice as old as 14. yay!
Can I make a little suggestion ?
I'm going to make it anyway:
Your problem was neatness.
You were doing great work in that big open space on the sheet, but it
started to get ragged. When you tried to look back to see if you made
a mistake, you couldn't find it in the mess.
This is not an easy problem, but you definitely know your stuff.
I think if you keep it a little neater, you're going to sparkle !

Answer:-9,015.23 i think plz dont come at me if wrong
Step-by-step explanation:
5+5=10/6=1.6*100=166.6/(25+1000=1025)=0.16-3456=-3,455.84*60=-207,350.4/23=-9,015.23
