Answer 3

To find the Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD) for these test scores, we first need to find the mean of the data set:

Mean = (55 + 60 + 70 + 70 + 75 + 75 + 75 + 80 + 80 + 85 + 85 + 85 + 85 + 90 + 90 + 95 + 100) / 17
Mean = 1295 / 17
Mean = 76.176

Next, we find the absolute deviations for each data point from the mean:

|55 - 76.176| = 21.176
|60 - 76.176| = 16.176
|70 - 76.176| = 6.176
|70 - 76.176| = 6.176
|75 - 76.176| = 1.176
|75 - 76.176| = 1.176
|75 - 76.176| = 1.176
|80 - 76.176| = 3.824
|80 - 76.176| = 3.824
|85 - 76.176| = 8.824
|85 - 76.176| = 8.824
|85 - 76.176| = 8.824
|85 - 76.176| = 8.824
|90 - 76.176| = 13.824
|90 - 76.176| = 13.824
|95 - 76.176| = 18.824
|100 - 76.176| = 23.824

Now, we find the average of these absolute deviations to get the Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD):

MAD = (21.176 + 16.176 + 6.176 + 6.176 + 1.176 + 1.176 + 1.176 + 3.824 + 3.824 + 8.824 + 8.824 + 8.824 + 8.824 + 13.824 + 13.824 + 18.824 + 23.824) / 17
MAD = 137.624 / 17
MAD ≈ 8.098

Therefore, the Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD) for these science test scores is approximately 8.098.

Answer 4

Apologies for the mistake. Let me correct that.

To find the Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD) for the given data set, we first need to find the mean of the scores:

Mean = (55 + 60 + 70 + 70 + 75 + 75 + 75 + 80 + 80 + 85 + 85 + 85 + 85 + 90 + 90 + 95 + 100) / 17
Mean = 1340 / 17
Mean = 78.82

Next, we find the absolute deviations for each data point from the mean and then calculate the Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD) using the formula:

MAD = (|55-78.82| + |60-78.82| + |70-78.82| + |70-78.82| + |75-78.82| + |75-78.82| + |75-78.82| + |80-78.82| + |80-78.82| + |85-78.82| + |85-78.82| + |85-78.82| + |85-78.82| + |90-78.82| + |90-78.82| + |95-78.82| + |100-78.82|) / 17
MAD = (|23.82| + |18.82| + |8.82| + |8.82| + |3.82| + |3.82| + |3.82| + |1.18| + |1.18| + |6.18| + |6.18| + |6.18| + |6.18| + |11.18| + |11.18| + |16.18| + |21.18|) / 17
MAD = (23.82 + 18.82 + 8.82 + 8.82 + 3.82 + 3.82 + 3.82 + 1.18 + 1.18 + 6.18 + 6.18 + 6.18 + 6.18 + 11.18 + 11.18 + 16.18 + 21.18) / 17
MAD = 155.68 / 17
MAD ≈ 9.16

Therefore, the Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD) for the given science test scores is approximately 9.16.

Answer 5

I apologize for the mistake. Let's recalculate the Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD) correctly this time.

Given data set: 55, 60, 70, 70, 75, 75, 75, 80, 80, 85, 85, 85, 85, 90, 90, 95, 100

Step 1: Calculate the mean of the data set:

Mean = (55 + 60 + 70 + 70 + 75 + 75 + 75 + 80 + 80 + 85 + 85 + 85 + 85 + 90 + 90 + 95 + 100) / 17
Mean = 1290 / 17
Mean = 76.47

Step 2: Calculate the absolute deviations for each data point from the mean:

|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
...
And repeat this process for all data points.

Step 3: Calculate the Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD) by finding the average of these absolute deviations:

MAD = (21.47 + 16.47 + 6.47 + 6.47 + 1.47 + 1.47 + 1.47 + ... ) / 17
MAD = (Sum of all absolute deviations) / 17

After calculating the absolute deviations and summing them up, you can then divide by 17 to find the Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD) for the given data set.
