QUESTION:
c. ?Suppose that a sample of 15 strands of drapery yarn has resulted in a sample mean thread elongation of 12.58 mm and a sample standard deviation of .512 mm. A 16th strand results in an elongation value of 11.8. What are the values of the sample mean and sample standard deviation for all 16 elongation observations?
ANSWER:Solution: Step 1: Here a sample of 15 strands of drapery yarn has resulted in a sample mean thread elongation of 12.58 mm and a sample standard deviation of .512 mm.A 16th strand results in an elongation value of 11.8. We have to find the sample mean and standard deviation for all 16 elongation observations.
