Mean: Mean is obtained by adding the observations in a set of data and then dividing the total value by the total number of observations.
Variance: The sample variance is defined as how much each observation in the data set deviates from a central point (average).
The formula to obtain the sample mean is,
The formula for variance is,
The mean of bottle weight is obtained below:
