3. The following data are the joint temperatures of the O-rings (°F) for each test firing or actual launch of the space shuttle rocket motor (from Presidential Commission on the Space Shuttle Challenger Accident, Vol. 1, pp. 129–131): 84, 44, 41, 53, 57, 61, 65, 52, 58, 57, 50, 62, 60, 68, 62, 69, 68, 68, 71, 70, 72, 68, 73, 71, 70, 74, 75, 73, 79, 81, 76, 77, 77, 83, 31, 83. Compute the sample mean, sample standard deviation, and sample median using the formula introduced in the lecture. Hint: you can use Excel function to verify the results but must apply the formula in lecture to solve the problem.
