The poison dart frog, Dendrobates auratus, is native to Costa Rica and other areas of Central and South America. They were introduced to Hawaii and have flourished there. These frogs concentrate toxins from their food and also modify various ingested compounds into toxins called allopumiliotoxins. A small sample of these frogs was collected on Kauai Island and their overall lengths measured in cm. The data appear below. 4.1 5.2 4.3 5.1 4.7 4.5 3.9 4.6 4.3 For this sample find the following: (a) the sum of the X's; (b) the sample mean; (c) the uncorrected sum of squares; (d) the corrected sum of squares; (e) the standard deviation:

Weatherwise is a magazine published by the American Meteorological Society. One issue gives a rating system used to classify Nor'easter storms that frequently hit New England and can cause much damage near the ocean. A severe storm has an average peak wave height of ? = 16.4 feet for waves hitting the shore. Suppose that a Nor'easter is in progress at the severe storm class rating. Peak wave heights are usually measured from land (using binoculars) off fixed cement piers. Suppose that a reading of 35 waves showed an average wave height of x = 17.3 feet. Previous studies of severe storms indicate that ? = 3.5 feet. Does this information suggest that the storm is (perhaps temporarily) increasing above the severe rating? Use ? = 0.01.

Weatherwise is a magazine published by the American Meteorological Society. One issue gives a rating system used to classify Nor'easter storms that frequently hit New England and can cause much damage near the ocean. A severe storm has an average peak wave height of μ = 16.4 feet for waves hitting the shore. Suppose that a Nor'easter is in progress at the severe storm class rating. Peak wave heights are usually measured from land (using binoculars) off fixed cement piers. Suppose that a reading of 40 waves showed an average wave height of x = 16.9 feet.

A certain species of tree has an average life span of 130 years. A researcher has noticed a large number of trees of this species washing up along a beach as driftwood. She takes core samples from 27 of those trees to count the number of rings and measure the widths of the rings. Counting the rings allows the researcher to determine the age of each tree. Her data are displayed in the provided table. 98 79 147 200 130 60 51 127 105 75 120 113 200 190 81 98 160 165 134 62 152 66 68 124 190 159 60 One of her interests is determining if this sample provides evidence that the average age of the driftwood is less than the 130 year life span expected for this type of tree. If the average age is less than 130 years it might suggest that the trees have died from unusual causes, such as invasive beetles or logging. Use technology to create a randomization distribution with at least 1,000 values…
