Question

Which data set has a relatively low mean and variability when compared with a data set that has a mean of 20 and a MAD of 3.1? A. Mean: 5 and MAD: 4.6 B. Mean: 25 and MAD: 6.5 C. Mean: 41 and MAD: 0.9 D. Mean: 8 and MAD: 1.2

Answer 1

Mean: 8 and MAD: 1.2

Explanation:

Given a data with :

Mean = 20 ; mean absolute deviation (MAD) = 3.1

DATA with a low mean and variability Than The above from the options given :

The most appropriate option is : Mean: 8 and MAD: 1.2 ; because both values of the mean and mean absolute deviation are lesser than the value given.
