Question: A nursing student read that neonates (newborn babies) sleep an average of 18 hours on their first day in the “outside world.” This particular nursing student, who has recently read a book on biostatistics, wondered about the variation about this average. She observed the first day of life for 25 babies in the nursery of a large rural hospital. She obtained the following data (hours spent sleeping). Look at the frequency distribution and estimate the size of the standard deviation. Decide whether to computer s, s2, or σ and then compute it. Write a sentence about these data including references to the mean and the standard deviation.
