Hello hello Hello i need help plz

This chart shows the top five salaries for the Los Angeles Dodgers in 2015. Find the mean and mean absolute value of this set of data. Then, explain what the mean absolute value means within this situation.

Top Five Salaries

(in millions of dollars)
28
21.8
21.1
19
15.5

Answer 1

Explanation:

I can't find the mean absolute value. But the absolute value is never negative unless there is a minus sign outside the absolute value bars.

So the mean is those 5 salaries added and then divide by 5

28

21.8

21.1

19

15.5

Total 105.4

The mean = 105.4 / 5 = 21.08

The absolute mean is the same thing. Both are plus. If you have a definition for the mean absolute value, please post it and I'll come back and edit my answer.
