The final equation that Leon would use to determine the mean absolute deviation is:
1. Calculate the absolute deviation for each data point:
|18 - 15.2| = 2.8
|24 - 15.2| = 8.8
|15 - 15.2| = 0.2
|9 - 15.2| = 6.2
|10 - 15.2| = 5.2
2. Calculate the mean absolute deviation by finding the average of the absolute deviations:
(2.8 + 8.8 + 0.2 + 6.2 + 5.2) / 5 = 4.64
So, the final equation is: MAD = 4.6
QuestionLeon counts the number of bugs he finds on his tomato plants each day and collects the following data: 18, 24, 15, 9, 10. The mean is 15.2. What is the final equation that he would use in determining the mean absolute deviation? Round each value to the nearest tenth.(2 points) WHAT IS IT
