And ........ how am I supposed to do that
One is negative 4 and one is positive 2
Answer:
90 boys
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 180 players
Multiply by the percent that are boys to find the number of boys
180 * 50%
180 * .50
90
First, let's calculate the mean and the mean absolute deviation of the first bowler.
FIRST BOWLER: <span>8,5,5,6,8,7,4,7,6
Mean = (Sum of all data)/(Number of data points) = (8+5+5+6+8+7+4+7+6)/9
<em>Mean = 6.222</em>
Mean absolute deviation or MAD = [</span>∑(|Data Point - Mean|]/Number of Data Points
MAD = [|8 - 6.222| + |5 - 6.222| + |5 - 6.222| + |6 - 6.222| + |8 - 6.222| + |7 - 6.222| + |4 - 6.222| + |7 - 6.222| + |6 - 6.222|]/9
<em>MAD = 1.136</em>
SECOND BOWLER: <span>10,6,8,8,5,5,6,8,9
</span>Mean = (Sum of all data)/(Number of data points) = (<span>10+6+8+8+5+5+6+8+9</span>)/9
<em>Mean = 7.222</em>
Mean absolute deviation or MAD = [∑(|Data Point - Mean|]/Number of Data Points
MAD = [|10 - 7.222| + |6 - 7.222| + |8 - 7.222| + |8 - 7.222| + |5 - 7.222| + |5 - 7.222| + |6 - 7.222| + |8 - 7.222| + |9 - 7.222|]/9
<em>MAD = 1.531
</em>
The mean absolute deviation represents the average distance of each data to the mean. Thus, the lesser the value of the MAD is, the more consistent is the data to the mean. <em>B</em><em>etween the two, the first bowler is more consistent.</em>
