<h2>Answer:</h2>
Mean= 29.3
and MAD= 1.5
<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>The data point is given by:
29, 30, 28, 32, 28, 31, 27
The mean of the data point is the average of the data points i.e. it is the ratio of sum of the data points to the total number of data points.
and Mean absolute deviation i.e. MAD is calculated in following steps:
1) Calculate the mean.
2) Find the absolute difference of each data points from the mean.
3) find the mean of these absolute difference.
The mean of the data points is:
Now,
|29-29.3|=0.3
|30-29.3|=0.7
|28-29.3|=1.3
|32-29.3|=2.7
|28-29.3|=1.3
|31-29.3|=1.7
|27-29.3|=2.3
The mean of these absolute difference i.e. MAD is:
which to the nearest tenth is: MAD=1.5
