Bellringer Use the following data set to construct a box and whisker plot. Identify the outlier Label the cluster(s) and/or gap(s) 12, 17, 15, 7, 9, 4, 15, 13, 100, 8, 15,

Deviation: The distance that two points are separated from each other. Deviation from the mean: How far the data point is from the mean. To find this distance, subtract the two values (the data point and the mean). Mean absolute deviation (MAD): the average distance of all the data points from their mean.
4
Find the mean absolute deviation of the following test scores: 87, 94, 72, 65, 97, 7
5
Step 1: Write the data in the first column of the table. Column 1Column 2Column 3Column 4 DataMeanDifferencePositive Value 87 94 72 65 97 7 Sum Count MAD
6
Step 2: Calculate the mean of the data and write that in each cell of column 2. Column 1Column 2Column 3Column 4 DataMeanDifferencePositive Value 8770.3 9470.3 7270.3 6570.3 9770.3 7 Sum Count MAD 87 94 72 65 97 + 7 422 ÷ 6 = 70.3

Step 3: Subtract column 1 from column 2 and write the difference in column 3. Column 1Column 2Column 3Column 4 DataMeanDifferencePositive Value 8770.3-16.7 9470.3-23.7 7270.3-1.7 6570.35.3 9770.3-26.7 770.363.3 Sum Count MAD 70.3 – 87 = -16.7 70.3 – 94 = -23.7 70.3 – 72 = -1.7 70.3 – 65 = 5.3 70.3 – 97 = -26.7 70.3 – 7 = 63.3
8
Step 4: Rewrite all the numbers from column 3 as positive numbers in column 4. Column 1Column 2Column 3Column 4 DataMeanDifferencePositive Value 8770.3-16.716.7 9470.3-23.723.7 7270.3-1.71.7 6570.35.3 9770.3-26.726.7 770.363.3 Sum Count MAD

Step 5: Calculate the mean of the data in column 4, and you’re done! This is the MAD. Column 1Column 2Column 3Column 4 DataMeanDifferencePositive Value 8770.3-16.716.7 9470.3-23.723.7 7270.3-1.71.7 6570.35.3 9770.3-26.726.7 770.363.3 Sum137.4 Count6 MAD22.9 16.7 23.7 1.7 5.3 26.7 + 63.3 137.4 ÷ 6 = 22.9
10
Find the mean absolute deviation of the data. Round to the nearest hundredth, if necessary. 87, 75, 85, 77, 74, 82 Click here to check your answer

12
Calculate the mean absolute deviation of each set of data. Show all work and answers on a separate sheet of notebook paper. (1) 12, 15, 7, 14, 18, 8, 10 (2) 17, 11, 18, 15, 13, 18, 13
