You have been hired as a consultant by a strawberry farmer. After being awarded the con*tract, you receive the following letter.

To: Recently Hired Statistician
From: Morgan Hill Berry Growers
Please advise us on which company to use as our strawberry distributor. Four highly rec*ommended distributors have provided us with statistical data on the weekly prices for one load of strawberries per week for a ten-week period last year. Prices fluctuate according to availability, and we would like to use the company with the lowest overall price and the least amount of fluctuation. We would like your written report showing your results and a detailed recommendation as to which company we should choose. Thank you.

I have not been hired as the consultant - you are the consultant!! So where is your report?

Please share your work with us .

If you are stuck at the beginning tell us and we'll start with the definitions such as "what is overall price?"

You need to read the rules of this forum. Please read the post titled "Read before Posting" at the following URL:

At the very least I would expect to see the mean and standard deviation for each company. Are you studying tests to compare means? Show us what you got!
