To determine which fertilizer is generally more effective, we can compare the average weight of the potatoes for each fertilizer.
For Fertilizer A:
Mean = (27+20+16+18+22+19+23+21+17+19)/10 = 20.2 kg
For Fertilizer B:
Mean = (28+19+18+21+24+20+25+27+29+21)/10 = 22.3 kg
From this calculation, we can see that Fertilizer B had a higher average potato weight than Fertilizer A. Therefore, we would conclude that Fertilizer B is generally more effective.
Two fertilizers are applied to randomly selected potato plants. After several weeks, the potatoes are weighed. The weights in kilograms are as follows. Which fertilizer is generally more effective?
Fertilizer A: 27, 20, 16, 18, 22, 19, 23, 21, 17, 19
Fertilizer B: 28, 19, 18, 21, 24, 20, 25, 27, 29, 21
