6.- The day after Thanksgiving-called Black Friday–is one of the largest shopping days in the United
States. A group of researchers conducted interviews with a sample of 38 women shopping on Black
Friday to gauge their shopping habits and reported the results in a published paper, in 2011. One
question was, "“How many hours do you usually spend shopping on Black Friday?" Data for the 38
shoppers are listed here: 66443 16 4 4 5 6 6 5 5 4 6 5 6 4 5 4 44 7 12 5 86 10 5 8 8 3 38 5 6 10 11.

Data was collected to test this. 40 slices of toast (each with butter on one side) were dropped (from the same height). 24 slices (60%) landed buttered side down.
