Answer:
mean absolute deviation is 18.85
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1:</u>-
Given observation values 22,26,28,35,45,63,91
![mean (x ) = \frac{22+26+28+35+45+63+91}{7}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=mean%20%28x%20%29%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B22%2B26%2B28%2B35%2B45%2B63%2B91%7D%7B7%7D)
mean = 44.28≅ 44
<u>Step2</u>:-
The deviations of the respective observations from the mean (x)
That is ![x_{i}-x](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x_%7Bi%7D-x)
22-44, 26-44,28-44,35-44,45-44,63-44,91-44
-22, -18 ,-16 ,-9, 1, 19, 47
<u>Step 3:</u>-
The absolute values of the given data
![x_{i}-x](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x_%7Bi%7D-x)
modulus of all these values
22,18,16,9.1,19,47
<u>Step 4</u>:-
Mean absolute deviation M.D=∑ ![\frac{x_{i} - x }{n}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7Bx_%7Bi%7D%20%20-%20x%20%7D%7Bn%7D)
![MAD = \frac{22+18+16+9+1+19+47}{7}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=MAD%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B22%2B18%2B16%2B9%2B1%2B19%2B47%7D%7B7%7D)
on simplification we get mean absolute deviation is 18.85
