What is the mean absolute deviation for the following dataset, representing the number of garden snails found on individual plants? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth. {8,8,9,14,15,22} (1 point)
I apologize for the mistakes in my previous calculations. Let's recalculate the mean absolute deviation for the dataset {8, 8, 9, 14, 15, 22}.
Step 1: Find the mean
Mean = (8 + 8 + 9 + 14 + 15 + 22) / 6
Mean = 11.00
Step 2: Find the absolute deviations from the mean
|8 - 11.00| = 3.00
|8 - 11.00| = 3.00
|9 - 11.00| = 2.00
|14 - 11.00| = 3.00
|15 - 11.00| = 4.00
|22 - 11.00| = 11.00
Step 3: Find the average of the absolute deviations
Average absolute deviation = (3.00 + 3.00 + 2.00 + 3.00 + 4.00 + 11.00) / 6
Average absolute deviation = 4.33
Therefore, the mean absolute deviation for the dataset is 4.33 (rounded to the nearest hundredth). Thank you for your patience.
Now that was right thank you.
You're welcome! I apologize for the previous errors and thank you for bringing it to my attention. If you have any more questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask.

Step 1: Find the mean
Mean = (8 + 8 + 9 + 14 + 15 + 22) / 6
Mean = 12.67
Step 2: Find the absolute deviations from the mean
|8 - 12.67| = 4.67
|8 - 12.67| = 4.67
|9 - 12.67| = 3.67
|14 - 12.67| = 1.33
|15 - 12.67| = 2.33
|22 - 12.67| = 9.33
Step 3: Find the average of the absolute deviations
Average absolute deviation = (4.67 + 4.67 + 3.67 + 1.33 + 2.33 + 9.33) / 6
Average absolute deviation = 5.22
Therefore, the mean absolute deviation for the dataset is 5.22.
I apologize for the error in my calculation.

Average absolute deviation = (4.67 + 4.67 + 3.67 + 1.33 + 2.33 + 9.33) / 6
Average absolute deviation = 5.00
Therefore, the mean absolute deviation for the dataset is 5.00.
I apologize for the repeated errors in my calculations. Let's correct this.
Step 1: Find the mean
Mean = (8 + 8 + 9 + 14 + 15 + 22) / 6
Mean = 12.67
Step 2: Find the absolute deviations from the mean
|8 - 12.67| = 4.67
|8 - 12.67| = 4.67
|9 - 12.67| = 3.67
|14 - 12.67| = 1.33
|15 - 12.67| = 2.33
|22 - 12.67| = 9.33
Step 3: Find the average of the absolute deviations
Average absolute deviation = (4.67 + 4.67 + 3.67 + 1.33 + 2.33 + 9.33) / 6
Average absolute deviation = 4.55
Therefore, the mean absolute deviation for the dataset is 4.55.
