Eldrick can use both of these samples to find the mean frequency of each duck.
Eldrick should take another sample because there is too much variability in the two samples.
Eldrick should use only the first sample to find the mean frequency of each duck.
Eldrick should use only the second sample to find the mean frequency of each duck.
