- The 98.6 degree standard for human body temperature was derived by a German doctor in 1868. In an attempt to verify his claim, Mackowiak, Wasserman, and Levine22 took temperatures from 148 healthy peopleover a 3-day period. A data set closely matching the one in Mackowiak’s article was derived by Allen Shoemaker, and appears in the Journal of Statistics Education.23 The body temperatures for these 130 individuals are shown in the relative frequency histogram that follows. See Attachment a. Describe the shape of the distribution of temperatures.b. Are there any unusual observations? Can you think of any explanation for these?c.

Peak wave heights are usually measured from land (using binoculars) off fixed cement piers. Suppose that a reading of 37 waves showed an average wave height of x = 16.5 feet.
