HELP ME OUT PLEASE

Answer 1

Answer:The mean deviation of the given data is;

Option B: 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Σ(x - x¯)/n

Now, x¯ is the mean = (1 + 2 + 3 + 3 + 4 + 5)/5

x¯ = 3

Thus;

1 - 3 = -2

2 - 3 = -1

3 - 3 = 0

3 - 3 = 0

4 - 3 = 1

5 - 3 = 2

Mean deviation is usually a positive value. Thus;

Σ(x - x¯) = 2 + 1 + 0 + 0 + 1 + 2

Σ(x - x¯) = 6

Thus;

Σ(x - x¯)/n = 6/6

Σ(x - x¯)/n = 1
