Absolute Mad Deviation is used to see how spread out data is, you find the mean of data then subtract the mean from each number (absolute value) and then find the mean with the subtracted numbers.
Brand A MAD: 2.6925
Brand B MAD: 1.05
It’s Brand A :)
Let X = pounds of Bermuda grass needed.
(20 pounds bahia grass x $6.30) + ( X x $3.65) = (20 +X) x $4.90
Simplify:
126 + 3.65X = 98 + 4.90X
Subtract 3.65X from each side:
126 = 98 + 1.25X
Subtract 98 from each side:
28 = 1.25X
Divide both sides by 1.25
X = 28 / 1.25
X = 22.4 pounds required.
