To solve the problem step by step, we will calculate the mean value, absolute error, relative error, and percentage error based on the given observations.
### Step 1: Calculate the Mean Value
The mean value (average) is calculated by summing all the observations and dividing by the number of observations.
Given observations:
1.29, 1.33, 1.34, 1.35, 1.32, 1.36, 1.30, 1.33
