Analysis of several plant-food preparations for potassium ion yielded the following data:
Sample | Percent K+ |
1 | 6.02, 6.04, 5.88, 6.06, 5.82 |
2 | 7.48, 7.47, 7.29 |
3 | 3.90, 3.96, 4.16, 3.96 |
4 | 4.48, 4.65, 4.68, 4.42 |
5 | 5.29, 5.13, 5.14, 5.28, 5.20 |
The preparations were randomly drawn from the same population.
(a) Find the mean and standard deviation s for each sample.
(b) Obtain the pooled value spooled.
(c) Why is spooled a better estimate of s than the standard deviation from any one sample?
