1. Curtis was curious about the average height of the different types of plants in his flower and vegetable gardens, so he measu

red each of his plants. This data set shows the heights of the flowers in his garden, in inches:8 6 9 6 14 9 5 7 . This data set shows the heights of the vegetable plants in his garden, in inches: 36 12 36 48 24 12 6 8.
(a) What is the mean absolute deviation (MAD) of the flower height data? Show your work.
(b) What is the mean absolute deviation (MAD) of the vegetable height data? Show your work.
(c) Use the data to compare the two gardens. What does the MAD indicate about the variability between flower and vegetable plant heights?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

hey i got the answer straight from my teach but ony a and c if you have the answer to b let me know  :  ( A) To determine the mean absolute deviation, first calculate the mean. Find the sum of the values: 8 plus 6 plus 9 plus 6 plus 14 plus 9 plus 5 plus 7 equals 64. Then divide the sum by the number of values: 64 divided by 8 equals 8. The mean is 8.

Next, find the distance of each value from the mean :

|8-8|=0 |6-8|=2 |9-8|=1 |6-8|=2 |14-8|=6 |9-8|=1 |5-8|=3 |7-8|=1

0 plus 2 plus 1 plus 2 plus 6 plus 1 plus 3 plus 1 equals 16. Then divide the sum of absolute deviations by the number of data values: 16 divided by 8 equals 2. The MAD of the data is 2.

 

C.  Since the MAD for the vegetable plant data is so much higher than the MAD for the flower data, this indicates that the heights of the vegetable plants vary more than the heights of the flowers    ALSO do you go to k12

How do you find velocity of a dt graph
givi [52]
Answer: to find velocity, simply put (d2-d1) over (t2-t1) or d/t.

Explanation: To find velocity, divide the change in distance by the change in time. On a graph, pick two points and find the slope of one portion of the line.
Why the slope?
Well this is like your normal x vs. y graph. X being the time and y being your distance.
To find the slope for this, it uses the same formula: (Y2-y1) / (x2-x1)

Hope this helps!!!
BTW, this is physics.

8. Compare the numbers in the following sequence and try to determine what the next number
Maksim231197 [3]
Answer: 90
Explanation: The pattern is add 3 then the next set is double. [9-6=3 then 18-9=9(or doubled)] and the pattern continues and because 45-42=3 the next number set would be 45 doubles which equals 90.
