Answer :
In this problem, 0.22 is a parameter.
Mean is defined as the average of given numbers i.e. sum of all numbers divided by the total number of numbers. The Mean is denoted as m or μ. Standard deviation is the measure which it shows the variation from the mean exists or not. The standard deviation is denoted as σ.
The range of possible values for a variable is known as a parameter. A parametric equation is an equation expressed in terms of parameters. In the equation y = 2x + 1, x is called the parameter. In statistics, a function variable whose variable is sought by means of evidence from the samples is called a parameter.
As per the given question,
- Number of bottles = 121
- mean ( μ ) = 4
- Standard deviation ( σ ) = 0.22
⇒ 0.22 is the standard deviation of the random sample which is a measurement. Measurements of populations can be called parameters.
Therefore, the 0.22 value in the problem is called a parameter.
