Help please on this math problem: The prices of backpacks at a store are 22, 16, 39, 35, 19, 34, 20, and 26. Find the Mean Absol

ute Deviation (MAD) of the prices.
*i just don’t know if I should round the price to divide, since the answer for the mean ends up being a decimal.*

Answer: 7.22
(note: this is a result after rounding. The result before rounding was 7.21875)

========================================================

Explanation:

Given Set of Values = {22, 16, 39, 35, 19, 34, 20, 26}

Add up the values: 22+16+39+35+19+34+20+26 = 211
Divide that sum by 8 as there are 8 values: 211/8 = 26.375

The mean is 26.375

Now subtract the mean from each data value. Apply the absolute value to ensure the difference is never negative

|22 - 26.375| = 4.375
|16 - 26.375| = 10.375
|39 - 26.375| = 12.625
|35 - 26.375| = 8.625
|19 - 26.375| = 7.375
|34 - 26.375| = 7.625
|20 - 26.375| = 6.375
|26 - 26.375| = 0.375

Add up those results
4.375+10.375+12.625+8.625+7.375+7.625+6.375+0.375 = 57.75
Then divide by 8 
57.75/8 = 7.21875

The mean absolute deviation of the prices is 7.21875
Rounded to two decimal places, it is 7.22
Since we're talking about money, it makes sense to round to the nearest penny.

Tamiku [17]

Answer:

36.575

Step-by-step explanation:

you need to find line ab you can do A^{2} +B^{2} =C^{2}  for the triangle and get the line you also need to get the squar root of it as it is still squared then devide by 2 to get the rades then times that by pi and there you go you have the area also sorry for spelling I love math not English

Given the equation and solution , find the missing coefficient.
Serggg [28]
-6x + 7 = 8x + A

let x = -4
-6(-4) + 7 = 8(-4) + A
24 + 7      = -32 + A
31 + 32    = -32 + 32 + A
63            = 0 + A
A = 63

Please help me solve
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

C. 30 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c²

When we draw out a picture, we should see that we use the Pythagorean Theorem to help solve our missing height:

10² + b² = 32²

b² = 32² - 10²

b = √924

b = 2√231 or 30.3974

Round that to 30 feet.

Point F' corresponds to point D. point E'. point F. point E.
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

  F' corresponds to point F

Step-by-step explanation:

When a point is the result of some transformation, we often designate that result using the base name of the original, with a prime (') added. In this case, we expect that F' is the transformation of point F.

__

<em>Comment on point naming</em>

Of course, points can be given any name you like. These conventions are adopted to aid in communication about transformations and correspondence between points. It would be unusual--even confusing, but not unreasonable, for point F' to correspond to point D, for example. In the case of certain transformations, point F' may actually <em>be</em> point D.
