Slope of a Line Passing through two points (x₁ , y₁) and (x₂ , y₂) is given by :

Given Points are (8 , 30) and (18 , 60)
here x₁ = 8 and x₂ = 18 and y₁ = 30 and y₂ = 60

We know that the form of line passing through point (x₀ , y₀) and having slope m is : y - y₀ = m(x - x₀)
Here the line passes through the point (8 , 30)
⇒ x₀ = 8 and y₀ = 30
We found Slope(m) = 3
Substituting all the values in the standard form, We get :
Equation of the line : y - 30 = 3(x - 8)
Let d be the x-intercept of this line
⇒ The line passes through the point (d , 0) as at x-intercept, y-coordinate is zero.
⇒ 0 - 30 = 3(d - 8)
⇒ 3d - 24 = -30
⇒ 3d = -30 + 24
⇒ 3d = -6
⇒ d = -2
⇒ The x - coordinate of the x-intercept of the line is -2
Jason's scores : 80 90 95 85 70 and
Jill's score : 70 75 90 100 95.
Mean of Jason's scores = 
Mean of Jill's scores = 
Now, in order to find the mean absolute deviation, need to find the difference of each score from means.
<u>Mean absolute deviation for Jason's scores.</u>
|84-80| = 4
|84-90| = 6
|84-95| = 9
|84-85| = 1
|84-70|= 14

<u>Mean absolute deviation for Jill's scores</u>
|86-70| = 16
|86-75| = 11
|86-90| = 4
|86-100| = 14
|86-95|= 9

Jill got average quiz score 86 and Jason got 84.
Therefore, Jill got better quiz average.
Also, the mean absolute deviation for Jason scores is less that is 6.8 than 10.8.
Therefore, Jason got more consistent grades.
