Daniela used the steps below to find a relationship between the difference in the mean temperatures and the mean absolute deviations of the data sets.

This Week Last Week

Step 1
Find the mean.
StartFraction 42 + 38 + 45 + 46 + 39 over 5 EndFraction = 42
Find the mean.
StartFraction 56 + 58 + 52 + 62 + 62 over 5 EndFraction = 58

Step 2
Find the mean absolute deviation.
StartFraction StartAbsoluteValue 42 minus 42 EndAbsoluteValue + StartAbsoluteValue 38 minus 42 EndAbsoluteValue + StartFraction StartAbsoluteValue 45 minus 42 EndAbsoluteValue + StartFraction StartAbsoluteValue 46 minus 42 EndAbsoluteValue + StartFraction StartAbsoluteValue 39 minus 42 EndAbsoluteValue over 5 EndFraction = 2.8
Find the mean absolute deviation.
StartFraction StartAbsoluteValue 56 minus 58 EndAbsoluteValue + StartAbsoluteValue 58 minus 58 EndAbsoluteValue + StartFraction StartAbsoluteValue 52 minus 58 EndAbsoluteValue + StartFraction StartAbsoluteValue 62 minus 58 EndAbsoluteValue + StartFraction StartAbsoluteValue 62 minus 58 EndAbsoluteValue over 5 EndFraction = 3.2
Step 3 Find the ratio of the differences of the means compared to the mean absolute deviation.
StartFraction 42 over 2.8 EndFraction = 15 Find the ratio of the differences of the means compared to the mean absolute deviation.
StartFraction 58 over 3.2 EndFraction = 18.125
Step 4 The difference in the means is about StartFraction 15 + 18 over 2 EndFraction = 16.5 times the mean absolute deviations.
