Calculate the sample means and standard deviations


Tomato sauce is packaged in a bottle designed to hold a nominal 16 oz of product. Eight samples of 4 bottles were randomly inspected. The results are listed in the following table.

Sample Measurement Mean Standard Deviation

1 16.2 15.8 16.3 16.5

2 16.3 16.2 16.1 15.7

3 15.6 16.4 16 16.2

4 16.7 16.2 16 16.4

5 16.2 16.5 16.6 15.8

6 16.6 16 15.8 15.9

7 16.1 15.7 15.9 16.3

8 15.7 16.6 15.8 16.2
