38. Climate change 2016 Data collected from around the globe (including the sea ice data of Exercise 23) show that the earth is getting warmer. The generally accepted explanation relates climate change to an increase in atmospheric levels of carbon dioxide (CO.) because CO, is a greenhouse gas that traps the heat of the sun. A standard source of the mean annual CO, concentration in the atmosphere (parts per mil- lion) is measurements taken at the top of Mauna Loa in Hawaii (away from any local contaminants) and available at ftp://aftp.cmdl.noaa.gov/products/trends/ co2/co2_annmean_mlo.txt.

The euphotic zone is the upper 200 m layer of the oceans. Very little sunlight penetrates deeper than 200 m, so most plants live in the euphotic zone. As a result, 70% of all photosynthesis on Earth occurs in the euphotic zone of the oceans. The following table gives light penetration data for the location in the Pacific Ocean. Depth (m) Penetration of Sunlight (%) 0.01 100 20 54.37 40 29.57 60 16.08 80 8.74 100 4.76 a. Determine the equation of the logarithmic regression by using LOG or LN function on your TI-83 Plus graphic calculator. b. Using your equation obtained from a), determine the depth with a sunlight penetration of 35%. Express your answer to the nearest tenth of meter.
7.24 Diamonds, Part I. Prices of diamonds are determined by what is known as the 4 Cs: cut, clarity, color, and carat weight. The prices of diamonds go up as the carat weight increases, but the increase is not smooth. For example, the difference between the size of a 0.99 carat diamond and a 1 carat diamond is undetectable to the naked human eye, but the price of a 1 carat diamond tends to be much higher than the price of a 0.99 diamond. In this question we use two random samples of diamonds, 0.99 carats and 1 carat, each sample of size 23, and compare the average prices of the diamonds. In order to be able to compare equivalent units, we first divide the price for each diamond by 100 times its weight in carats. That is, for a 0.99 carat diamond, we divide the price by 99. For a 1 carat diamond, we divide the price by 100. The distributions and some sample statistics are shown below.20 Conduct a hypothesis test to evaluate if there is a difference between the average standardized…
