A medical clinic asks all of its patients to complete a quick survey after each appointment. Patients are asked to rate their experience on a scale of 1 to 10, with 1 representing a very poor experience, and 10 representing an excellent experience. The surveys are separated into categories based on age. Then, each month, a random sample of 10 surveys are gathered from each age category. The results of this month's random samples of the 40-60 age group and the 60+ age group are shown below.
40 - 60 2 6 5 7 4 3 1 4 2 7
60+ 4 10 10 10 8 6 2 8 4 10
Calculate the mean and mean absolute deviation of each sample. Then, complete the following question.
The mean rating of the 40-60 group is three points
than the mean rating of the 60+ group. This difference is
the variability of either group.
