Mean Absolute Deviation

What is Mean Absolute Deviation?  Another measure of variability is called the mean absolute deviation. The mean absolute deviation (MAD) is the average.

How can you describe how far apart the responses are from the center in a data set? In this lesson you will learn how to describe the distribution of data.

 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.

MAD Practice #1-6

Mean Absolute Deviation Practice 1. Daily Visitors to a Web Site: The MAD is indicating the average difference of visits to a web site from the mean is times. The data is spread out in relation to the mean. 1. Daily Visitors to a Web Site: Step 1: Find the Mean Step 2: Find the distance each element is from the mean Step 2 (cont.): Use the absolute value of each distance Step 3: Calculate the mean of these distances

Mean Absolute Deviation Practice 2. Zoo Admission Prices: The MAD is 0.5 indicating the average difference of prices from the mean is $0.50. The data is less spread out and closer to the mean. 2. Zoo Admission Prices: Step 1: Find the Mean Step 2: Find the distance each element is from the mean Step 2 (cont.): Use the absolute value of each distance Step 3: Calculate the mean of these distances

Mean Absolute Deviation Practice 3. Height of Waterslides: Splash Lagoon vs. Wild Water Bay Step 1: Find the Mean of Splash Lagoon Step 2: Find the distance each element is from the mean and use the absolute value of each distance Step 3: Calculate the mean of these distances Step 1: Find the Mean of Wild Water Bay Step 2: Find the distance each element is from the mean and use the absolute value of each distance Step 3: Calculate the mean of these distances

Mean Absolute Deviation Practice 3. Height of Waterslides: Splash Lagoon vs. Wild Water Bay

Mean Absolute Deviation Practice 3. Height of Waterslides: Splash Lagoon vs. Wild Water Bay The MAD for Splash Lagoon is The MAD for Wild Water Bay is A lower MAD indicates the data is less spread out and closer to the mean. Therefore, the height of the waterslides at Splash Lagoon are closer to the mean height demonstrating less variation in the height of each slide in comparison to the slides at Wild Water Bay.

Mean Absolute Deviation Practice 4. Known Moons of Planets: The MAD is indicating the average difference of the number of moons per planet from the mean is The data is spread out in relation to the mean. 4. Known Moons of Planets: Step 1: Find the Mean Step 2: Find the distance each element is from the mean Step 2 (cont.): Use the absolute value of each distance Step 3: Calculate the mean of these distances

Mean Absolute Deviation Practice 5. Hard Drive (gigabytes): The MAD is indicating the average difference of the number of gigabytes per hard drive from the mean is The data is significantly spread out in relation to the mean. 5. Hard Drive (gigabytes): Step 1: Find the Mean Step 2: Find the distance each element is from the mean Step 2 (cont.): Use the absolute value of each distance Step 3: Calculate the mean of these distances

Mean Absolute Deviation Practice 6. Digital Camera Prices: The MAD is indicating the average difference of the prices from the mean is $ The data is spread out in relation to the mean. 6.
