Be sure to include appropriate title, labels, and scales on all graphs. Include units on answers and be sure to answer to the listed decimal place when listed. 1. Construct a bar graph for the following pH data for water samples. (HINT: expand the y-axis) 2. Use the following data and given the assumptions listed below, construct a line graph and a paired bar graph: LINE GRAPH – assume these grades represent PAIRED BAR GRAPH – compare average performance of one student over two semesters grades assuming two groups of students taking in one academic year the same course in sequential semesters
2 3. Complete the table and construct a pie chart for the following data for the Quick-Mart Service Station. (Hint: A circle contains 360 degrees). Include a title, remediation method labels, and cost amounts on the pie chart below. [Percentage = (part/total) * 100] [Degrees of Circle = (part/total) * 360] Remediation Method for 2018 the Quick- Mart Service Station Cost Percentage of Budget ( to two decimal places ) Degrees of Circle ( to three decimal places ) Analytical testing $ 538,900 44.56 160.422 Decontamination $ 177,665 14.69 52.884 Groundwater treatment $ 254,347 21.03 75.708 Health & Safety $ 49,475 4.09 14.724 Soil excavation & disposal $ 188,950 15.62 56.232 TOTAL S 1,209,337 100 360 45% 15% 21% 4% 16% Cost of Total budget Analytical testing Decontamination Ground Water Treatment Health and safety Soil excavation & disposal
3 Scientific Notation ( Use commas appropriately for numbers exceeding 1,000 ) – If the value given is a number, then write it in scientific notation. If the value given is expressed in scientific notation, then write it as a number. 2.8736 * 10 10 1 * 10 12 7.538 * 10 6 4.742 * 10 3 4.9328517*10 -6 0.0000006242 4,370,000,000,000 539000000000 From the Background, here are the rules for significant figures again: 1. Every nonzero digit in a recorded measurement is significant. 24.7 m, 0.743 m and 714 m all have three significant figures. 2. Zeroes appearing between nonzero digits are significant. The measurements 7003 m, 40.79 m, and 1.503 m all have four significant figures. 3. Zeroes in front of (before) all nonzero digits are merely placeholders; they are not significant. 0.0000099 only has two significant figures. 4. Zeroes at the end of the number if a decimal point is present and zeroes to the right of the decimal are significant. The measurements 1241.20 m, 210.100 m and 5600.00 all have six significant digits. 5. Zeroes at the end of a measurement and to the left of an omitted decimal point are ambiguous. They are not significant if they are only place holders: 6,000,000 live in New York—the zeroes are just to represent the magnitude of how many people are in N.Y. But the zeroes can be significant if they are the result of precise measurements. Rounding & Significant Figures (retain the following as whole or decimal numbers): 4 8 35.7 8 4. 28,736,000,000 = 5. 1,000,000,000,000 = 6. 7,538,000 = 7. 4,742 = 8. 0.0000049328517 = 9. 6.242 x 10 -7 = 10. 4.37 E + 12 = 11. 5.39 x 10 11 = 12. 47,830,000,000 to 2 significant figures = 13. 35.6971 to 3 significant figures = 14. 7.689 to nearest whole number =

4 Calculating Percentage Changes (calculate to two decimal places, rounding as appropriate ) SHOW EQUATION TO BE SOLVED Answer Percent Change = (new – old)/old * 100 15. 342.91 to 477.38 = (old) (new) 16. 477.38 to 342.91 = The Dallas County budget includes several departmental line-items that are related to environmental concerns. The following table lists amounts expended in 2017 and 2018, along with the projected budgetary allowance for 2019. Line Item $ in 2017 $ in 2018 $ in 2019 Fire Prevention & Public Education 158,000 271,000 308,000 Bioterrorism & Environmental Health 181,000 246,000 250,000 Clearing trash & debris from roadways 134,000 145,000 154,000 On-site Sewage Facility Inspections 220,000 233,000 228,000 Building Inspections 213,000 216,000 219,000 Permitting 124,000 126,000 129,000 17. Calculate Annual Budget Totals: 1,030,000 1,237,000 1,288,000 What percentage (round to 2 decimal places ) of the overall spending for various environmental services was allocated in 2019 to each of the following line items? SHOW EQUATION TO BE SOLVED Answer 18. Fire Prevention & = Public Education 19. Clearing trash & = debris from roadways 20. On-site Sewage = Facility Inspections 21. Permitting = 39.21% change -28.17% change 23.91% 11.96% 17.7% 10.02%
5 Calculate the following for these environmental issues. SHOW EQUATION TO BE SOLVED Answer 22. 2017 Line item mean = (calculate the average) 23. 2018 Line item mean = (calculate the average) 24. 2019 Line item mean = (calculate the average) 25. Budget total mean = (calculate the average of the averages) Mean = Values/Number of values so mean = 1,030,000/6 171,666.67 Same thing 1237000/6 = 206,166.67 1288000/6 = 214,666.67 Add them all up and divide by three 197,500.00
