I apologize for the mistake. Let me recalculate the MAD using the correct formula:

1. Find the mean (average) of the data:
Mean = (55 + 60 + 70 + 70 + 75 + 75 + 75 + 80 + 80 + 85 + 85 + 85 + 85 + 90 + 90 + 95 + 100) / 17
Mean = 1315 / 17
Mean = 77.35

2. Find the absolute deviation of each score from the mean:
|55 - 77.35| = 22.35
|60 - 77.35| = 17.35
|70 - 77.35| = 7.35
|70 - 77.35| = 7.35
|75 - 77.35| = 2.35
|75 - 77.35| = 2.35
|75 - 77.35| = 2.35
|80 - 77.35| = 2.65
|80 - 77.35| = 2.65
|85 - 77.35| = 7.65
|85 - 77.35| = 7.65
|85 - 77.35| = 7.65
|85 - 77.35| = 7.65
|90 - 77.35| = 12.65
|90 - 77.35| = 12.65
|95 - 77.35| = 17.65
|100 - 77.35| = 22.65

3. Find the sum of the absolute deviations:
22.35 + 17.35 + 7.35 + 7.35 + 2.35 + 2.35 + 2.35 + 2.65 + 2.65 + 7.65 + 7.65 + 7.65 + 7.65 + 12.65 + 12.65 + 17.65 + 22.65 = 141.55

4. Find the Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD):
MAD = 141.55 / 17
MAD = 8.32

Therefore, the correct Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD) for the science test scores is 8.32.

I apologize for the error in my previous calculations. Let's recalculate the Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD) for the given science test scores once again:

First, we calculate the mean of the data:
Mean = (55 + 60 + 70 + 70 + 75 + 75 + 75 + 80 + 80 + 85 + 85 + 85 + 85 + 90 + 90 + 95 + 100) / 17
Mean = 1300 / 17
Mean = 76.47 (approximately)

Next, we find the absolute deviations from the mean for each score:
|55 - 76.47| = 21.47
|60 - 76.47| = 16.47
|70 - 76.47| = 6.47
|70 - 76.47| = 6.47
|75 - 76.47| = 1.47
|75 - 76.47| = 1.47
|75 - 76.47| = 1.47
|80 - 76.47| = 3.53
|80 - 76.47| = 3.53
|85 - 76.47| = 8.53
|85 - 76.47| = 8.53
|85 - 76.47| = 8.53
|85 - 76.47| = 8.53
|90 - 76.47| = 13.53
|90 - 76.47| = 13.53
|95 - 76.47| = 18.53
|100 - 76.47| = 23.53

Now, we calculate the sum of the absolute deviations:
21.47 + 16.47 + 6.47 + 6.47 + 1.47 + 1.47 + 1.47 + 3.53 + 3.53 + 8.53 + 8.53 + 8.53 + 8.53 + 13.53 + 13.53 + 18.53 + 23.53 = 144.56

Divide the sum by the number of data points to find the MAD:
MAD = 144.56 / 17
MAD ≈ 8.50

Therefore, the correct Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD) for the provided science test scores is approximately 8.50.

I apologize for the oversight. Let's recalculate the Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD) using the correct mean value:

First, let's find the correct mean of the data:

Mean = (55 + 60 + 70 + 70 + 75 + 75 + 75 + 80 + 80 + 85 + 85 + 85 + 85 + 90 + 90 + 95 + 100) / 17
Mean = 1320 / 17
Mean = 77.65

Next, we find the absolute deviations from the mean for each score:
|55 - 77.65| = 22.65
|60 - 77.65| = 17.65
|70 - 77.65| = 7.65
|70 - 77.65| = 7.65
|75 - 77.65| = 2.65
|75 - 77.65| = 2.65
|75 - 77.65| = 2.65
|80 - 77.65| = 2.35
|80 - 77.65| = 2.35
|85 - 77.65| = 7.35
|85 - 77.65| = 7.35
|85 - 77.65| = 7.35
|85 - 77.65| = 7.35
|90 - 77.65| = 12.35
|90 - 77.65| = 12.35
|95 - 77.65| = 17.35
|100 - 77.65| = 22.35

Now, we calculate the sum of the absolute deviations:
22.65 + 17.65 + 7.65 + 7.65 + 2.65 + 2.65 + 2.65 + 2.35 + 2.35 + 7.35 + 7.35 + 7.35 + 7.35 + 12.35 + 12.35 + 17.35 + 22.35 = 147.45

Divide the sum by the number of data points to find the MAD:
MAD = 147.45 / 17
MAD ≈ 8.68

Therefore, the correct Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD) for the provided science test scores is approximately 8.68. Thank you for your patience.

Apologies for the oversight. Let's recalculate the Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD) using the correct total sum:

First, let's find the correct mean of the data:

Mean = (55 + 60 + 70 + 70 + 75 + 75 + 75 + 80 + 80 + 85 + 85 + 85 + 85 + 90 + 90 + 95 + 100) / 17
Mean = 1355 / 17
Mean = 79.71 (approximately)

Next, we find the absolute deviations from the mean for each score:
|55 - 79.71| = 24.71
|60 - 79.71| = 19.71
|70 - 79.71| = 9.71
|70 - 79.71| = 9.71
|75 - 79.71| = 4.71
|75 - 79.71| = 4.71
|75 - 79.71| = 4.71
|80 - 79.71| = 0.29
|80 - 79.71| = 0.29
|85 - 79.71| = 5.29
|85 - 79.71| = 5.29
|85 - 79.71| = 5.29
|85 - 79.71| = 5.29
|90 - 79.71| = 10.29
|90 - 79.71| = 10.29
|95 - 79.71| = 15.29
|100 - 79.71| = 20.29

Now, we calculate the sum of the absolute deviations:
24.71 + 19.71 + 9.71 + 9.71 + 4.71 + 4.71 + 4.71 + 0.29 + 0.29 + 5.29 + 5.29 + 5.29 + 5.29 + 10.29 + 10.29 + 15.29 + 20.29 = 145.69

Divide the sum by the number of data points to find the MAD:
MAD = 145.69 / 17
MAD ≈ 8.57

Therefore, the correct Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD) for the provided science test scores is approximately 8.57. Thank you for your patience.

You are correct. The absolute deviations should be calculated correctly by taking into account the direction of the deviation. Let's recalculate the Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD) considering the correct absolute deviations:

First, let's find the correct mean of the data:

Mean = (55 + 60 + 70 + 70 + 75 + 75 + 75 + 80 + 80 + 85 + 85 + 85 + 85 + 90 + 90 + 95 + 100) / 17
Mean = 1355 / 17
Mean = 79.71 (approximately)

Now, let's calculate the absolute deviations from the mean by considering the direction correctly:
|55 - 79.71| = 24.71
|60 - 79.71| = 19.71
|70 - 79.71| = 9.71
|70 - 79.71| = 9.71
|75 - 79.71| = 4.71
|75 - 79.71| = 4.71
|75 - 79.71| = 4.71
|80 - 79.71| = 0.29
|80 - 79.71| = 0.29
|85 - 79.71| = 5.29
|85 - 79.71| = 5.29
|85 - 79.71| = 5.29
|85 - 79.71| = 5.29
|90 - 79.71| = 10.29
|90 - 79.71| = 10.29
|95 - 79.71| = 15.29
|100 - 79.71| = 20.29

Now, we calculate the sum of the absolute deviations:
24.71 + 19.71 + 9.71 + 9.71 + 4.71 + 4.71 + 4.71 + 0.29 + 0.29 + 5.29 + 5.29 + 5.29 + 5.29 + 10.29 + 10.29 + 15.29 + 20.29 = 145.47

Divide the sum by the number of data points to find the MAD:
MAD = 145.47 / 17
MAD ≈ 8.55

Therefore, the correct Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD) for the provided science test scores is approximately 8.55. Thank you for pointing that out, and I appreciate your patience.
