Find the mean absolute deviation (MAD) of the data in the pictograph below.
pieces of stinky cheese


Sagot :

Answer:

The answer to this question is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we have to find the mean of this problem.

  • 2 + 4 + 4 + 2/4
  • = 12/4
  • = 3 pieces of this, "stinky cheese."

Next, we have to find the distance each of these points are from the mean.

2

= 3 - 1 = 2

4

4 - 3 = 1

5

4 - 3 = 1

2

3 - 2 = 1

The (MAD) or mean absolute deviation is 1.

Why?:

  • 1 + 1 + 1 + 1/4
  • = 4/4
  • =1 of the, "stinky cheeses."
