Sesame oil is very high in linoleic acid, one of the two essential fatty acids (EFAs) our bodies cannot produce. Essential fatty acids are necessary for normal growth and for healthy blood, arteries, and nerves.
The Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD) of a set of data. is the average distance between each data value and the mean. The steps to find the MAD include: 1. find the mean (average) 2. find the difference between each data value and the mean. 3. take the absolute value of each difference.
Divide by how many values N and we have: Let's do our example again, using the proper symbols: Step 1: Find the mean: Step 2: Find the Absolute Deviations: Step 3. Find the Mean Deviation: Note: the mean deviation is sometimes called the Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD) because it is the mean of the absolute deviations.
