Chapter 2, Problem 53E
Each of the following coins is photographed to scale. Measure each using a metric ruler (in cm) and record the diameter to the precision reflected in the ruler. Make a simple graph of the value of the coin (x-axis) and the diameter of the coin (y-axis). Is there any correlation between these two quantities? Which coin does not fit the general trend?
