Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark

Answer to Problem 4IP

Girls have a mean height of 65 inches with a mean absolute deviation 0.8 inches and the boys have a mean height of 69 inches with mean absolute variation 1.4 inches.

The mean of boys is greater than girls; however the variation of boys is also greater which means that the heights of boys are more spread out.

Explanation of Solution

Given information: The double dot plots showing the heights of boys and girls.

Calculation:

Both the double dot plots are symmetric. Use the mean to compare the centers and the mean absolute deviation to compare the variations.

For the Boys:

  mean=66+67+67+68+68+69+69+69+70+70+71+71+7213

  mean=89713

  mean=69

Now finding the absolute variations

  |6669|=3|6769|=2|6869|=1|6969|=0|7069|=1|7169|=2|7269|=3

Now,

  mean absolute deviation=3+2+2+1+1+0+0+0+1+1+2+2+313

  mean absolute deviation=1813

  mean absolute deviation=1.4

For the Girls:

  mean=63+64+64+64+65+65+65+65+66+66+66+6712

  mean=78012

  mean=65

Now finding the absolute variations

  |6365|=2|6465|=1|6565|=0|6665|=1|6765|=2

Now,

  mean absolute deviation=2+1+1+1+0+0+0+0+1+1+1+212

  mean absolute deviation=1012

  mean absolute deviation=0.8

  

    Girls Boys
    Mean 65 69
    Mean absolute deviation 0.8 1.4

Girls have a mean height of 65 inches with a mean absolute deviation 0.8 inches and the boys have a mean height of 69 inches with mean absolute variation 1.4 inches.

The mean of boys is greater than girls; however the variation of boys is also greater which means that the heights of boys are more spread out.
