Which of the following best describes the relationship between the computed mean and the actual mean?
O A. The computed mean is close to the actual mean because the difference between the means is less than 5% of the actual mean.
O B. The computed mean is close to the actual mean because the difference between the means is more than 5% of the actual mean.
OC. The computed mean is not close to the actual mean because the difference between the means is less than 5% of the actual mean.
O D. The computed mean is not close to the actual mean because the difference between the means is more than 5% of the actual mean.
