Answer:

The mean absolute deviation of the data set is 6

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the mean absolute deviation of the data, start by finding the mean of the data set.

  • Find the sum of the data values, and divide the sum by the number of data values.
  • Find the absolute value of the difference between each data value and the mean: |data value – mean|.
  • Find the sum of the absolute values of the differences.
  • Divide the sum of the absolute values of the differences by the number of data values

∵ The data are 68 , 59 , 65 , 77 , 56

- Find their sum

∴ The sum of the data = 68 + 59 + 65 + 77 + 56 = 325

∵ The number of data in the set is 5

- Find the mean by dividing the sum of the data by 5

∴ The mean = 325 ÷ 5 = 65

- Find the absolute difference between the each data and the mean

∵ I68 - 65I = 3

∵ I59 - 65I = 6

∵ I65 - 65I = 0

∵ I77 - 65I = 12

∵ I56 - 65I = 9

- Find the sum of the absolute differences

∵ The sum of the absolute differences = 3 + 6 + 0 + 12 + 9

∴ The sum of the absolute differences = 30

Divide the sum of the absolute differences by 5 to find the mean absolute deviation

∴ The mean absolute deviation = 30 ÷ 5 = 6

The mean absolute deviation of the data set is 6

A square rug has an area 80ft which is the best approximation of the length of one side of the rug.....Explain...If you can show
kow [346]
So to find the answer, first we need to understand how to approximate square roots. 80 is an imperfect square, so we're going to have to round the answer. To find that, we need to find the multiples 80.

72, 80, 81.
8, x, 9

So the distance apart between 72 and 81 is 9. The answer, x, is obviously between 8 and 9, and since the distance between these to is 9, your answer is going to be 8.9 .

Find the slope of the line that passes through the two points below."<br> (7,-1) and (9,0)
Stells [14]

Answer:

1/2 or 0.5 (same value, different form)

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok...since I can't actually graph it, we can make a table out of it....

x      y

7     -1

9      0

From -1 to 0, we add 1 (this is for the y section)

From 7 to 9, we add 2 (this is for the x section)

Now all we have to do is divide the y with the x

y/x = 1/2

The slope will be 1/2 (fraction form) 0.5 (decimal form)

Hope this helped!
