Homework Problem
Apple juice contains trace amounts of arsenic, measured in parts per billion
(ppb). Over the past five years, I have been sampling apple juices and measuring
their arsenic concentrations. You are being given a data set (the “Juice” sheet)
containing the arsenic concentrations and the years in which I measured them.
(You can assume that the experiment was conducted well, the sampling was
done properly, etc.)
a) Create a visualization that depicts the distribution of the concentration
data, and describe that distribution. “Describe” goes beyond simply
naming the shape!
b) These data are stratified by year. Create an individual confidence interval
about the sample mean for each year. (So, you’ll have 5 different intervals.)
Is apple juice getting any more or less safe as time goes on?
c) Each year, the generally accepted consensus was that the typical concentration
is 2.25 ppb. Do we believe this?
d) Why is the interval for 2021 so much tighter than the rest?
e) Comment on whether any data values in this data set should be removed.
