Listed below are the overhead widths (in cm) of seals measured from photographs and the weights of the seals (in kg). The purpose of the study was to determine if weights of seals
could be determined from overhead photographs. Is there sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a correlation between overhead widths and the weights of the seals? Use a
significance level of α=0.10.

- sd02 1o1 a 18. | Archaeology: Ireland The Hill of Tara in Ireland is a place of great ar- chaeological importance. This region has been occupied by people for bmore than 4000 years. Geomagnetic surveys detect subsurface anomalies in the earth's magnetic field. These surveys have led to many significant archaeological discoveries. After collecting data, the next step is to begin a statistical study. The following data measure magnetic susceptibility (centimeter-gram-second X 10-) (Reference: Tara: An Archaeological Survey by Conor Newman, Royal Irish Academy, Dublin). 00g sh O ban d br O9 dmn nlisn UOB 0U Eronb ou beomsis o abood bas bt bob boul Is nuto two of the main grids of the Hill of Tara 927 am bao T ed bohg 101 Diot sin Grid E: x variable 13.20 5.60 19.80 15.05 21.40 17.25 27.45 TOA1 16.95 23.90 32.40 40.75 5.10 17.75 28.35 021 Grid H: y variable 11.85 15.25 21.30 17.30 27.50 10.35 14.90 bau w to 48.70 25.40 25.95 57.60 34.35 38.80 41.00 31.25 (a) Compute 2x, E, 2y, and y (b)…arrow_forwardA test of H0: μ = 50 versus H1: μ ≠ 50 is performed using a significance level of α = 0.01.
