Question

I am having trouble with mean absolute deviation and whisker box plots. I try looking at examples, but it keeps stressing me out. I just can't understand it X(

Answer 1

Answer:

Mean absolute deviation is a statistical measure of dispersion. Whisker box-plot is a graphical method of quartile based divided data

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean Absolute Deviation is a statistical measure of dispersion or variability  in data. It denotes average level of deviation of observations from the central mean.

It is calculated using following formula : ( Σ | X - X' | ) ÷ N ; where X = individual observations, X' = mean, N = no. of observations

Whisker Box-plot is a graphical method of representing group of numerical data through their quartiles. This also consists line extensions from boxes, showing scatter beyond lower & upper quartile.
