Question
![The following 3 observations of variables X and Y were collected.
| X | 2 | 6 | 13 |
|---|---|---|----|
| Y | 17 | 24 | 43 |
(a) Calculate the sample means for both X and Y.
X = [Number input field]
Y = [Number input field]
---
**Explanation of Data:**
The table above presents observations for two variables, X and Y. Each column corresponds to a different observation, with variable X in the top row and variable Y in the bottom row.
**Variables:**
- X: Observations are 2, 6, 13.
- Y: Observations are 17, 24, 43.
**Task:**
Calculate the mean (average) for each variable, X and Y, by summing the observations and dividing by the number of observations (3 in this case). Input your results in the provided fields.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F37bb73ef-17af-4632-b3e9-6fec814abd09%2F994e7250-44eb-47c4-900c-3fd8076e2c76%2F5yzlt9p_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
