Q. In the data set below, what is the mean absolute deviation? \newline4,3,2,4,44, 3, 2, 4, 4\newlineIf the answer is a decimal, round it to the nearest tenth.\newlinemean absolute deviation (MAD): __\_\_
  1. Calculate Mean: Step 11: Calculate the mean of the data set 4,3,2,4,44, 3, 2, 4, 4.\newlineSum of data points: 4+3+2+4+4=174 + 3 + 2 + 4 + 4 = 17.\newlineNumber of data points: 55.\newlineMean calculation: 17/5=3.417 / 5 = 3.4.\newlineMean: 3.43.4
  2. Find Absolute Deviation: Step 22: Find the absolute deviation for each data point from the mean. Absolute deviation for 44 = 43.4=0.6|4 - 3.4| = 0.6. Absolute deviation for 33 = 33.4=0.4|3 - 3.4| = 0.4. Absolute deviation for 22 = 23.4=1.4|2 - 3.4| = 1.4. Absolute deviation for another 44 = 43.4=0.6|4 - 3.4| = 0.6. Absolute deviation for the last 44 = 43.4=0.6|4 - 3.4| = 0.6. Absolute deviations: 43.4=0.6|4 - 3.4| = 0.600
  3. Calculate Mean of Absolute Deviations: Step 33: Calculate the mean of the absolute deviations.\newlineSum of absolute deviations: 0.6+0.4+1.4+0.6+0.6=4.60.6 + 0.4 + 1.4 + 0.6 + 0.6 = 4.6.\newlineNumber of data points: 55.\newlineMean of absolute deviations: 4.6/5=0.924.6 / 5 = 0.92.\newlineRounded to the nearest tenth: 0.90.9
