Answer 2

The correct option is 1.

Explanation:

The give data set is

{11, 10, 9, 12, 10}

Formula for mean is

`Mean=(\sum x)/(n)`

The means of the given data is

`Mean=(11+10+9+12+10)/(5)=(52)/(5)=10.4`

The absolute deviation for an element in the data set is

`\text{Absolute deviation}=|X-Mean|`

The absolute deviation for 11 in the data set is

`\text{Absolute deviation}=|11-10.4|`

`\text{Absolute deviation}=|0.6|`

`\text{Absolute deviation}=0.6`

The absolute deviation for 11 in the data set is 0.6. Therefore the correct option is 1.
