Answer:

A. The number of cantaloupes sold at North and South varied about the same amount and B. The number of cantaloupes sold at Central varied less than did the number sold at North.

Step-by-step explanation: just took the quiz and got a 4.5 on the quiz. and what i forgot to add was A. The number of cantaloupes sold at North and South varied about the same amount. And please let me know if this is not correct. and please rate and love my comment.

The correct option is The number of cantaloupes sold at Central varied less than did the number sold at North.

What is the mean absolute deviation?

The means absolute deviation is the average distance of each of the data points about the mean.

The below-given table shows the data of the three different stores.

Store location   Mean number of sales     MAD

Central                            45                               4.1

North                               47                               5.7

South                              29                               5.9

As we know that the mean absolute deviation shows as the average of the difference in the mean data that can occur. Therefore, it shows us the amount by which the data can deviate from its mean.

Now, if we look at the option, the only option that is correct about the given data is "The number of cantaloupes sold at Central varied less than did the number sold at North".

The statement holds true because the Mean absolute deviation for the store in the center is least, therefore, it varies the least from all the given options.

Hence, the correct option is The number of cantaloupes sold at Central varied less than did the number sold at North.
