Using the same one-tailed test (α = .05), determine if the data indicate that the past four years have had significantly more 90° days than would be expected for a random sample from this population. Write your conclusion in a sentence as it might appear in a research report (i.e. as you've been doing in your homework). At the end of your sentence, be sure to include the test statistic, p-level, and a measure of effect size (Cohen’s d…which you will have to calculate).
Researchers at the National Weather Center in Portland, Maine recorded the number of 90° days each year since records were first kept, starting in 1875. The number of 90° days form a
