Answer:

$13,500.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent money spent on monthly bills.

We have been given that last month a museum received €21000 in donations. The ratio of bills to donations was 5:14.

We will use proportions to solve our given problem.

\frac{\text{Bills}}{\text{Donations}}=\frac{5}{14}

\frac{x}{21000}=\frac{5}{14}  

\frac{x}{21000}*21000=\frac{5}{14}*21000

x=5*1500

x=7500

Now, we will subtract $7500 from donations to find the amount spent on new exhibitions as:

\$21,000-\$7500=\$13,500

Therefore, they spent $13,500 on new exhibitions.

What is the mean absolute deviation of the data set?<br><br> 2, 2, 5, 6, 8, 4, 8, 5
DedPeter [7]

ANSWER

The mean absolute deviation is 1.75

EXPLANATION

The given date set is 2, 2, 5, 6, 8, 4, 8, 5

The mean is

\bar X =  \frac{2 + 2 + 5 + 6 + 8 + 4 + 8 + 6}{8}  = 5

The mean absolute value deviation is given by:

=\frac{ \sum |x -\bar X| }{n}

=  \frac{ | 2 - 5|  +  |2 - 5|+  |5- 5|+  |6 - 5|+  |8 - 5| +  |4 - 5|+  |8- 5|+  |5 - 5| }{8}

=  \frac{ 3  +  3+ 0+  1+  3 + 1+3+  0}{8}

=  \frac{14}{8}

= 1.75
