Inverse Normal Distribution
The method used for finding the corresponding z-critical value in a normal distribution using the known probability is said to be an inverse normal distribution. The inverse normal distribution is a continuous probability distribution with a family of tw…

It is a descriptive summary of a data set. It can be defined by using some of the measures. The central tendencies do not provide information regarding individual data from the dataset. However, they give a summary of the data set. The central tendency o…
Z-Scores
A z-score is a unit of measurement used in statistics to describe the position of a raw score in terms of its distance from the mean, measured with reference to standard deviation from the mean. Z-scores are useful in statistics because they allow compar…

Chapter 10.3, Problem 14HP
To determine

To explain: Why the mean absolute deviation might be useful considering two real-world distributions with the same mean and median?

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark

Answer to Problem 14HP

Mean absolute deviation can be used to describe a data set and can be used to how the values of the data set are spread.

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

Why the mean absolute deviation might be useful considering two real-world distributions with the same mean and median?

Mean absolute deviation is the average distance between each data value and the mean of the data set.

It can be used to describe the variation in a data set and to sense how the data has been spread in the data set.
