Answer to Problem 19PPS
The mean year of Theo’s pennies is
The mean absolute deviation is
Explanation of Solution
Given:
There are
The years of Theo’s pennies are:
Formula used :
Step1: Find the mean,
Step2: Find the sum of the absolute values of the difference between each value in the set of data and the mean.
Step3: divide the sum by the number of values in the set of data.
Calculation:
As per the given problem,
The data set:
The number of values in the data set
Step1: To find the mean, add the values in the data and then divide by the number of values in the data set.
Step2: To find the sum of the absolute values, add the difference between each value and the mean.
The sum of absolute values
Step 3: Divide the sum by the number of values

Answer to Problem 19PPS
The mean year of all the pennies is
The mean absolute deviation is
Peter’s sample is more similar to the full population than that of the others.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
There are
The year of pennies in jar:
Calculation:
As per the given problem,
The data set:
The number of values in the data set
Step1: To find the mean, add the values in the data and then divide by the number of values in the data set.
Step2: To find the sum of the absolute values, add the difference between each value and the mean.
The sum of absolute values
Step 3: Divide the sum by the number of values
As, Peter’s sample (calculate in part (d)) has the minimum difference from the population’s mean year (one year) and mean absolute deviation (
