Can balloons hold more air or more water before bursting? A student purchased a large bag of 12-inch balloons. He randomly selected 10 balloons from the bag and then randomly assigned half of them to be filled with air until bursting and the other half to be filled with water until bursting. He used devices to measure the amount of air and water was dispensed until the balloons burst. Here are the data

Suppose that you drive from College Station to Houston (say 100 miles) and it takes you 90 minutes to get there. Now suppose that your on-board computer calculates your average velocity as follows: it samples your current velocity every second, and it calculates the average of all the velocities measured over the span of the trip. What is your best guess for what answer your computer calculates for the average velocity?
Wolf packs tend to be large extended family groups that have a well-defined hunting territory. Wolves not in the pack are driven out of the territory or killed. In ecologically similar regions, is the size of an extended wolf pack related to size of hunting region? Using radio collars on wolves, the size of the hunting region can be estimated for a given pack of wolves. Let x represent the number of wolves in an extended pack and y represent the size of the hunting region in km2/1000. The following data are representative of one of the national parks. x wolves 29 37 22 61 94 y km2/1000 7.35 12.18 8.15 15.39 16.81 (a) Verify that Σx = 243, Σy = 59.88, Σx2 = 15,251, Σy2 = 788.2256, Σxy = 3362.04, and r ≈ 0.9135.

A student is concerned with the amount of air pollution students are exposed to in the school's parking lot after school. The student conducts an investigation to compare the quantity of particulate matter released from the diesel-powered buses, natural gas-powered buses, and the large and small cars as they idle waiting to pick up students. To make measurements, a small piece of white fabric is used to collect particulate matter from the tailpipe of each vehicle as it idles for five minutes. Each piece of fabric is then analyzed to measure the amount of particulate matter it collected. (i) Identify the independent variable in the investigation. (j) Identify one variable that was not mentioned in the description that could affect the results of the investigation. (k) Describe a realistic alternate sampling method to collect particulate matter from the vehicles in the investigation. (1) The student wants to ensure that the results are reliable. Explain how the student could modify the…
The following data represent the muzzle velocity (in feet per second) of rounds fired from a 155-mm gun. For each round, two measurements of the velocity were recorded using two different measuring devices, resulting in the following data. Complete parts (a) through (d) below.

The same round was fired in every trial. B. The measurements (A and B) are taken by the same instrument. C. Two measurements (A and B) are taken on the same round. D. All the measurements came from rounds fired from the same gun.
