Find the mean absolute deviation of the set of data 9 12 3 5 8

Mathematics

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for determining the mean of a data is

Mean = sum of items/number of items

Looking at the given data, sum of the items is

9 + 12 + 3 + 5 + 8 = 37

Number of items = 5

Mean = 37/5 = 7.4

Deviation of each item from the mean is

9 - 7.4 = 1.6

12 - 7.4 = 4.6

3 - 7.4 = - 4.4

5 - 7.4 = - 2.4

8 - 7.4 = 0.6

The sum of the absolute values are

1.6 + 4.6 + 4.4 + 2.4 + 0.6 = 13.6

The mean absolute deviation is

13.6/5 = 2.72

Answer:

\bar X =\frac{9 + 12 + 3 + 5 + 8}{5} =7.4

MAD= |1.6| + |4.6| + |4.4| + |2.4| + |0.6| = 13.6

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following data given: 9,12,3,5,8

1 step

The mean for this case can be calculated with this formula:

\bar X= \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{n}

And replacing we got:

\bar X =\frac{9 + 12 + 3 + 5 + 8}{5} =7.4

2 Step

We can calculate the deviation for each value from the mean like this:

9 - 7.4 = 1.6

12 - 7.4 = 4.6

3 - 7.4 = - 4.4

5 - 7.4 = - 2.4

8 - 7.4 = 0.6

And in order to calculate the mean absolute deviation we just need the following formula:

MAD= \sum_{i=1}^n |X_i -\bar X|

And replacing we got:

MAD= |1.6| + |4.6| + |4.4| + |2.4| + |0.6| = 13.6

The length of a postage stamp is
AleksAgata [21]
<h3>Answer: Choice B</h3><h3>2W+2( W+4 1/4) = 124 1/2</h3>

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

Explanation:

L = length

W = width

"The length is 4 1/4 longer than the width" (paraphrase) so

L = W + 4 1/4

This means,

P = perimeter = 124 1/2

P = 2L+2W

2L+2W = P

2W+2L = P

2W+2( L ) = P

2W+2( W+4 1/4) = 124 1/2
