A study of the effect of smoking on sleep patterns is conducted. The measure observed is the time, in minutes, that it takes to fall asleep. These data are obtained:
Smokers: 69.3 56.0 22.1 47.6 53.2 48.1 52.7 34.4 60.2 43.8 23.2 13.8
Non Smokers: 28.6 25.1 26.4 34.9 28.8 28.4 38.5 30.2 30.6 31.8 41.6 21.1 36.0 37.9 13.9
i.By calculating mean for each data, which group do you think have better asleep time taken and why?
ii.Calculate standard deviation, variance and Co-efficient of variation for each group and compare them.
iii.Which group having greater value of relative dispersion and why?
iv.Solve part (ii) through R also.
