The deviation of a data point from the mean is calculated by subtracting the mean from the data point.
Given:
- Mean = 59
- Data point = 43
The deviation is calculated as:
\[ \text{Deviation} = \text{Data point} - \text{Mean} \]
\[ \text{Deviation} = 43 - 59 = -16 \]
So, the deviation of the data point at 43 is **−16 (negative 16)**.
