What is the mean absolute deviation (MAD) of the data set?

Mathematics

Ksenya-84 [330]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

\frac{16}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for MAD is  attached in the pic below.

<em>X_i are all the x values</em>

<em>x bar is the mean (sum of all the numbers divided by the number of numbers)</em>

<em>n is the number of numbers</em>

<em />

Basically, <em>we subtract the mean (x bar) from each of the values and take the absolute value of it and SUM all of them. Then we divide by the number of numbers.</em>

<em />

Thus, mean = \frac{2+6+8+12+12}{5}=\frac{40}{5}=8

Now, \frac{|2-8|+|6-8|+|8-8|+|12-8|+|12-8|}{5}\\=\frac{6+2+0+4+4}{5}\\=\frac{16}{5}

The MAD is  \frac{16}{5}

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

15x + 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Combine like terms. Like terms are terms with the same amount of variables. Set the equation so that the terms are grouped:

6x + 9x + 6 + 9

Combine like terms:

(6x + 9x) = 15x

(6 + 9) = 15

15x + 15 is your answer.

Please help me im stressing :((

Answer:

  • wrong: -2x² -x² ⇒ -2x²
  • correct: x³ -3x² +6

Step-by-step explanation:

The point of these "what was done wrong" exercises is to see if you know what the correct steps look like.

On line 2, Danielle correctly distributed the minus sign to eliminate the second set of parentheses. (There is often a problem with minus signs and parentheses, so it is nice to see it done correctly.)

On line 3, the two x² terms are incorrectly combined. It looks as though Danielle simply dropped the -x² term because it disappeared without changing the coefficient of x² from -2x². The correct sum of those terms is ...

  -2x² -x² = -3x²

so the correct work on line 3 is ...

  x³ -3x² +6
