438 425
A)
For sample Z--
The mean is calculated by:
Ratio of sum of all the data points of Z-sample to the total number of points i.e. 10.
Similarly for sample Y--
The mean is calculated as follows:
B)
As we could see that the data Y has a greater spread from the mean as compared to the sample Z.
As all the points in the sample Z are close to the mean and have less spread.
The standard deviation is most commonly used to measure the spread of the data.
Standard deviation of sample Z is: 10.651
Standard deviation of sample Y is: 16.9944
Hence Sample Y have larger deviation from the mean.
