I suspect the problem is more general than you stated. To calculate the one mean is very simple, but again I'm guessing the real problem is a larger data set with many means being calculated. In that case, it's not clear why the mean that gets placed next to 2020-01-13 is the mean of 2020-01-02 through 2020-01-06, and what other means gets calculated from what time periods. Can you explain further?

here the problem is just to calculate one mean when fixing just one interval
