Find the mean absolute deviation of the data set.
10, 7, 13, 10,8

1st step (find the mean):

Mean: 10 + 7 + 13 + 10 + 8 = 48/5 = 9.6

Mean: 9.6

2nd step ( Subtract the mean ((9.6)) in the following given data set )

9.6 - 10 = 0.4

9.6 - 7 = 2.6

9.6 - 13 = 3.4

9.6 - 10 = 0.4

9.6 - 8 = 1.6

3rd step (Now we have to add up all the difference's ((the numbers that are in bold))

0.4 + 2.6 + 3.4 + 0.4 + 1.6 = 8.4/5 = 1.68

So our final answer would be 1.68 (M.A.D) Mean Absolute Deviation = 1.68

dalila is incorrect. the whisker on the left is very long, going all the way out to 5. the whisker goes from 5 to 30, so it has a spread of 25. the rest of the box plot values are closer together, so 5 is an outlier
