- A county environmental agency suspects that the fish in a particular polluted lake have elevated mercury levels. To confirm that suspicion, five striped basses in that lake were caught and their tissues were tested for mercury. For the purpose of comparison, four striped basses in an unpolluted lake were also caught and tested. The fish tissue mercury levels in mg/kg are given below. Sample I(From Polluted Lake) 0.523 0.723 0.523 0.623 0.523 Sample II(From Unpolluted Lake) 0.323 0.223 0.523 0.323 0.000 (a) Construct the 95% confidence interval for the difference in the population means based on these data. (b) Test, at the 5% level of significance, whether the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that fish in the polluted lake have elevated levels of mercury in their tissue.assume that the data was obtained from two indepen-dent samples.

- 1.56 Longleaf pine trees. The Wade Tract in Thomas County, Georgia, is an old-growth forest of longleaf pine trees (Pinus palustris) that has survived in a relatively undisturbed state since before the settlement of the area by Europeans. A study collected data on 584 of these trees. One of the variables measured was the diameter at breast height (DBH). This is the diameter of the tree at 4.5 feet, and the units are centimeters (cm). Only trees with DBH greater than 1.5 cm were sampled. Here are the diameters of a random sample of 40 of these trees: PINES 27 10.5 13.3 26.0 18.3 52.2 9.2 26.1 17.6 40.5 31.8 47.2 11.4 2.7 69.3 44.4 16.9 35.7 5.4 44.2 2.2 4.3 7.8 38.1 2.2 11.4 51.5 4.9 39.7 32.6 51.8 43.6 2.3 44.6 31.5 40.3 22.3 43.3 37.5 29.1 27.9 (a) Find the five-number summary for these data.
