What is the mean absolute deviation (MAD) of the data set?
{11, 10, 17, 18}

The mean absolute deviation (MAD) of the data set is 3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: What is MAD?

MAD is the average distance between each data value. <MAD> is used to see variation of the data. The larger the MAD, the further apart the numbers are.(and vice versa)

Step 2: Find the mean

11 + 10 + 17 + 18 = 56

56/4 = 14

Step 3: Formula to find the Absolute Deviations or distance of the data value to the mean

Find the absolute value of the difference between each data value and the mean:        | data value – mean |      or        I mean - data value I

Step 4: Find the Absolute Deviations

14 - 11 = 3

14 - 10 = 4

17 - 14 = 3

18 - 14 = 4

Step 5: FInd the mean of the Absolute Deviations or MAD

3 + 4 + 3 + 4= 14

14/4 = 3.5

points are handed out whenever you post answers.

brainliest answers are handed out by the person asking the question, so whether your answer is picked depends entirely on whether the asker bothers to pick

if you're asking about your rank, it depends on having a certain number of points and a certain number of brainliest answers. for example, at the time of this writing, i have 44338 points out of 15000 needed for the next (nearly triple the requirement! ) but i only have 24 out of 50 required brainliest answers. this number decays, meaning after a certain amount of time (i think about a month), the total number of brainliest answers you've earned doesn't count toward this total. (i've been stuck at the same rank for a long

the lesson to learn here is that you shouldn't worry about points or rank. chances are, no matter how good an answer you may provide, your efforts will go mostly unnoticed unless you focus on the newest/most active questions that get posted.
