Question

Group Radii of Tomatoes (centimeters)

Answer 1

Answer: Option 'B' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

since we have given that

Group radii of fertilized tomatoes is given by

$0.8, 1.1, 0.9, 0.8, 1.0, 1.2, 0.9, 1.1, 1.0, 1.2$

Group radii of unfertilized tomatoes is given by

$1.4, 1.6, 1.3, 1.5, 1.1, 1.5, 1.6, 1.2$

So, we will first find the mean of both the group i.e.

Mean radii of fertilized tomatoes is given by

$=\frac{0.8+1.1+0.9+0.8+1.0+1.2+0.9+1.1+1.0+1.2}{10}\\\\=1$

Similarly,

Mean radii of unfertilized tomatoes is given by

$\frac{1.4+1.6+1.3+1.5+1.1+1.5+1.6+1.2}{8}\\\\=\frac{11.2}{8}\\\\=1.4$

So, the difference between the mean radii of fertilized and unfertilized tomatoes will be

$1.4-1=0.4\ cm$

Hence, Option 'B' is correct.
