Answer:
2.16
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is on mean absolute deviation
The general formula ,
Mean deviation = sum║x-μ║/N where x is the each individual value, μ is the mean and N is number of values
<u>Team 1</u>
Finding the mean ;

Points Absolute Deviation from mean
51 2
47 2
35 14
48 1
64 15
<u>Sum </u> 34
Absolute mean deviation = 34/5= 6.8
<u>Team 2</u>
Finding the mean

Points Absolute deviation from the mean
27 15.8
55 12.2
53 10.2
38 4.8
41 1.8
<u>Sum 44.8 </u>
Absolute deviation from the mean = 44.8/5 =8.96
Solution
Difference in mean absolute deviation of the two teams = 8.96-6.8 = 2.16
It would be 3 lbs apple because your are dividing
You need to factor the numerator and denominator...
(2x^2+4x-2x-4)/(2x^2-2x-2x+2)
(2x(x+2)-2(x+2))/(2x(x-1)-2(x-1))
((2x-2)(x+2))/((2x-2)(x-1)) so the (2x-2)s cancel out leaving
(x+2)/(x-1)
Answer: 10.7x + 5
Step-by-step explanation:
(3.5 + 7.2)x + (-5 + 10) = 10.7x + 5
