An article in Air and Waste ("Update on Ozone Trends in California's South Coast Air Basin," Vol. 43, 1993) studied the ozone levels on the South Coast air basin of California for the years 1976-1991. The author believes that the number of days that the ozone exceeds 0.20 parts per million depends on the seasonal meteorological index (the seasonal average 850 millibar temperature). The data follow: Year Days Index 16.3 1976 91 1977 105 17.1 1978 106 18.2 1979 108 18.1 1980 88 17.2 1981 91 18.2 1982 58 16.0 1983 82 17.2 Round your answers to 2 decimal places.

Please answer parts 1 and 2 of the following question (not the histogram part 1, but the part where you calulate the proportion of days...) Thank you
It is a well-known fact that 40% of college students LOVE taking Mathematics. A certain professor at WCC wanted to test to see if a majority of students at WCC LOVE taking Mathematics. To test this, the professor randomly samples 1000 students and finds that 515 of them LOVE taking Mathematics.At the 0.05 level of significance, does the above sample provide evidence to suggest a majority of students at WCC LOVE taking Mathematics? Step 1: Define the parameter & setup the testStep 2: State the Level of SignificanceStep 3: Find the value of the Test StatisticsStep 4: Find P-Value OR Find Critical ValueStep 5: State Conclusion and why

Use the following scenario for questions 1-4: Dr. Wiese wants to determine whether duration of pregnancy and type of opiate use among pregnant women predict developmental delays in their children. In a sample of 30 new mothers, Dr. Wiese measured the duration of their pregnancies (premature, mature, postmature) and the type of opiate that they used during pregnancy (oxycodone, heroin). All participants' babies were then rated on how closely they have met developmental milestones on a scale ranging from 1-10. 1. Identify one of the independent variables. How many levels does this variable have? 2. Identify the other independent variable. How many levels does this variable have? 3. This study is a .............x ...................factorial design.
