The simple random sample consists of six observations: 5, 8, 10, 7, 10, 14. The point estimate of the population mean is:

Options:

1

4

9

25

Correct Answer:

9

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (3) → 9

$\bar{x}=\frac{5+8+10+7+10+14}{6}$

$\bar{x}=\frac{54}{6}$

$\bar{x}=9$

Hence, the point estimate of the population mean is 9.
