To explore how the mean might vary from sample to sample, they simulated by drawing many samples of size 2, 5, 10, and 20, with replacement, from the 250 measurements. The summary statistics for these simulations are shown below. Answer parts a through d below. Click the icon to view the summary statistics table.
