Jane is trying to estimate the average electric bill amount of people who live in Las Cruces in summer time. She randomly selected 10 houses from the map, and obtained their bill amounts from the electric company for the month of July, and they are listed as below:

135 265 215 103 156 203 125 156 230 241

Please help Jane to estimate the average electric cost amount of all residents in Las Cruces.

The estimated average electric cost amount of all residents in Las Cruces = 182.9

Step-by-step explanation:

The bill amounts from the electric company for the month of July for 10 randomly selected houses from the map was obtained to be

135 265 215 103 156 203 125 156 230 241

Using the Central Limit theory, the mean of a sample extracted randomly from an independent distribution is approximately equal to the population mean of the independent distribution.

This means that the sample mean of a random sample extracted from the population is a good estimate of the population mean.

Sample mean ≈ Population mean

μₓ = μ

Mean = = (Σx)/N

The mean is the sum of variables divided by the number of variables

x = each variable

N = Sample size = 10

Σx = (135+265+215+103+156+203+125+156+230+241) = 1,829

Sample mean = (1,829/10) = 182.9

Population mean ≈ sample mean

Population mean ≈ 182.9
