(a) calculate a point estimate of the mean value of coating thickness. (round your answer to four decimal places.)

μ = 1.3468

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Observations

0.85

0.88

0.88

1.06

1.09

1.12

1.29

1.31

1.42

1.49

1.59

1.62

1.65

1.71

1.76

1.83

sum of the observations = 21.55

now,

the total number of the given data, n = 16

now, the mean is given as:

Mean = (Sum of all the observation) / (Total number of observations)

on substituting the values in the above formula, we get

Mean = 21.55 / 16

or

Mean = 1.3468

Since, it is given that the data follows normal distribution.

thus, the normal mean can be used as the point of estimator (μ)

i.e μ = 1.3468

is there a picture

step-by-step explanation:

answer: 16

step-by-step explanation: first you would add 6+6 which equals 12 then add 2+2 which equals 4. then add 12 + 4 which is 16.

hope this ^_^
