The following data are from a simple random sample: 6, 8, 11, 9, 15, 17, then the point estimate of the population mean is |
9 10 11 12 |
11 |
The correct answer is Option (3) → 11 ** Given sample values: $6,\;8,\;11,\;9,\;15,\;17$ Point estimate of population mean = sample mean. Sum of values: $6+8+11+9+15+17 = 66$ Number of observations: $6$ Sample mean = $ \frac{66}{6} = 11 $ The point estimate of the population mean is 11. |
