Risk Assessment and Management
The sample mean is the average of a set of values taken from a larger population, calculated by summing all sample observations and dividing by the number of observations. It serves as a key statistic in probability and statistics, representing a point estimate of the population mean and providing insight into the central tendency of data. The sample mean is essential for inferential statistics, helping to make predictions or generalizations about a larger group based on a smaller subset.
