Inorganic phosphorous is a naturally occurring element in all plants and animals, with concentrations increasing progressively upthe food chain (fruit < vegetables < cereals < nuts < corpse). Geochemical surveys take soil samples to determine phosphorouscontent (in ppm, parts per million). A high phosphorous content may or may not indicate an ancient burial site, food storage site,or even a garbage dump. The Hill of Tara is a very important archaeological site in Ireland. It is by legend the seat of Ireland'sancient high kingst. Independent random samples from two regions in Tara gave the following phosphorous measurements(ppm). Assume the population distributions of phosphorous are mound-shaped and symmetric for these two regions.Region I: x,; n, = 12540 810 790790340800890 860 820 640 970720Region II: x,; n2 = 16750870700 810965350 895 850635 955 710 890 520 650 280 993A USE SALT(a) Use a calculator with mean and standard deviation keys to calculate x,, s,, x,, and s,.
