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.
Consider the data (1, 1, 2, 2, 4, 6, 9). It has a median value of 2. The absolute deviations about 2 are (1, 1, 0, 0, 2, 4, 7) which in turn have a median value of 1 (because the sorted absolute deviations are (0, 0, 1, 1, 2, 4, 7)). So the median absolute deviation for this data is 1.
