The number of pets owned by eight classmates is shown below:

1, 3, 2, 2, 1, 3, 3, 1

Part A: What is the mean of the data? Show your work. (4 points)

Part B: Use your answer from Part A to calculate the mean absolute deviation for the data. Show your work. (6 points)

Answer 1

Part A: 1+3+2+2+1+3+3+1
which is 16 then since there
8 number you divide 16/8 which is 2, so
the mean would be 2.

Answer 2

but im not too sure about Part B

Answer 3

I believe it's 6

Answer 4

First you have to subtract 2 from everyone of the values
make all of them positive ( modulus of the number)

then divide the sum of these by 8

Answer 5

so ill do the first 2 for you
1-2 = - 1 = 1
3/2 =1

so first 2 are both 1

can you continue?
