Coefficient of variationarrow_forwardSee picture of table attached to answer, thank you Garrison Bay is a small bay in Washington state. A popular recreational activity in the bay is clam digging. For several years, this harvest has been monitored and the size distribution of clams recorded. Data for lengths and widths of littleneck clams (Protothaca staminea) were recorded by a method of systematic sampling in a study done by S. Scherba and V. F. Gallucci"The Application of Systematic Sampling to a Study of lnfaunal Variation in a Soft Substrate Intertidal Environment," Fishery Bulletin, Vol. 74, pp. 937-948). The data in Tables 8-4 and 8-5 give lengths and widths for 35 littleneck clams. (a) Use a calculator to compute the sample mean and sample standard deviation for the lengths and widths. Compute the coefficient of variation for each. (b) Compute a 95% confidence interval for the population mean length of all Garrison Bay littleneck clams.
