Answer 2

Answer:

4.25

Explanation:

The mean deviation is how far, on average, all values are from the middle. To do that, we subtract each element from the mean of the elements, take their absolute values, and then divide by the number of elements in the set. Here's the formula: $\sum\frac{|x-\mu|}{n}$

Here the mean is 9.5, the count n = 8, so the mean deviation is 4.25
