Answer:

The point estimate of population mean is 21.6.

Step-by-step explanation:

A point estimate is a numerical value that is used to estimate the value of the parameter under study.

The point estimate is calculated using the sample values.

For example, sample ([tex]\bar x[/tex]) is the point estimate of population mean (μ), sample standard deviation (s) is the point estimate of population standard deviation (σ), sample proportion ([tex]\hat p[/tex]) is the point estimate of population proportion (p).

It is provided that the sample mean of 100 items is,

[tex]\bar x=21.6[/tex]

Then the point estimate of population mean is:

[tex]\mu=\bar x=21.6[/tex]

Thus, the point estimate of population mean is 21.6.
