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.
B. The computed mean is close to the actual mean because the difference between the means is more than 5% of
the actual mean.
C. The computed mean is not close to the actual mean because the difference between the means is more than
5% of the actual mean.
D. The computed mean is not close to the actual mean because the difference between the means is less than 5%
of the actual mean.
