Exposure to microbial products, especially endotoxin, may have an impact on vulnerability to allergic diseases. The following are data on concentration (EU/mg) in settled dust for one sample of urban homes and another of farm homes.

U: 6.0 5.0 11.0 33.0 4.0 5.0 80.0 18.0 35.0 17.0 23.0
F: 2.0 15.0 12.0 8.0 8.0 7.0 6.0 19.0 3.0 9.8 22.0 9.6 2.0 2.0 0.5
Determine the sample mean for each sample.

Answer:

Sample mean for U=21.5

Sample mean for F=8.4

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]Sample mean of u=xbar_{u} =\frac{sum(xi)}{n}[/tex]

Where xi are the observations in the urban homes sample and n is the number of observations in the urban homes sample

[tex]sample mean of u=xbar_{u} =\frac{6+5+11+33+4+5+80+18+35+17+23}{11}[/tex]

[tex]sample mean of u=xbar_{u} =\frac{237}{11}=21.545[/tex]

Rounding it to one decimal places

[tex]sample mean of u=xbar_{u}=21.5[/tex]

Now for second sample

[tex]Sample mean of F=xbar_{F} \frac{sumxi}{n}[/tex]

Where xi are the observations in the farm homes sample and n is the number of observations in the farm homes sample

[tex]Sample mean of F=xbar_{F} =\frac{2+15+12+8+8+7+6+19+3+9.8+22+9.6+2+2+0.5)}{15}[/tex]

[tex]Sample mean of F=xbar_{F} =\frac{125.9}{15} =8.393[/tex]

Rounding it to one decimal places

[tex]Sample mean of F=xbar_{F} =8.4[/tex]
