A technician at a clinical laboratory received a blood serum sample for cholesterol analysis. In order to check the reliability of the procedure, the technician repeated the assay five times and obtained the results below. Use a spreadsheet statistical analysis to estimate the mean, standard deviation and standard error of the mean (SEM) for the data. Total cholesterol in blood serum sample in mg/100 mL (mg%): 157, 154, 155, 152, 155.
