Answer:

2.8

Step-by-step explanation:

1) find the mean of the data set. = 15

2) find the abs value of the diff between each data value and the mean: |data value – mean|.

|10-15|=5, |20-15|=5, |15-15|=0, |17-15|=2, |13-15|=2

3) find the sum of the abs values of the diff = 14

4) divide the sum of the abs value by the number of data values = 14/5 = 2.8
