Phosphorous is a chemical that is found in many household cleaning products. Unfortunately, phosphorous also finds its way into surface water, where it can harm fish, plants, and other wildlife. Two methods of phosphorous reduction are being studied. At a random sample of 7 locations, both methods were used and the total phosphorous reduction (mg/L) was recorded. Note: For degrees of freedom d.f. not in the Student's t table, use the closest d.f. that is smaller. In some situations, this choice of d.f. may increase the P-value a small amount and thereby produce a slightly more "conservative" answer.
Site | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 |
Method I: | 0.013 | 0.020 | 0.015 | 0.055 | 0.007 | 0.002 | 0.010 |
Method II: | 0.014 | 0.045 | 0.017 | 0.039 | 0.017 | 0.001 | 0.013 |
Do these data indicate a difference (either way) in the average reduction of phosphorous between the two methods? Use
(Let d = Method I − Method II.)

- NASA is conducting an experiment to find out the fraction of people who black out at G forces greater than 6. Step 1 of 2: Suppose a sample of 525 people is drawn. Of these people, 215 passed out at G forces greater than 6. Using the data, estimate the proportion of people who pass out at more than 6 Gs. Enter your answer as a fraction or a decimal number rounded to three decimal places.arrow_forwardPlease answer part B and C. Thank Youarrow_forwardRivers in North Carolina contain small concentrations of mercury that can accumulate in fish over their lifetimes. The concentration of mercury in fish tissue can be obtained by catching fish and sending samples to a lab for analysis. A study was conducted on fish from the Waccamaw and Lumber Rivers to investigate mercury levels in tissues of largemouth bass. At several stations along each river a group of fish were caught, weighed and measured; in addition a filet from each fish was sent to a lab so that the tissue concentration of mercury could be determined. In all, 171 fish were caught at 15 different research stations along the Waccamaw and Lumber Rivers. Data from fish caught at one of these stations is shown in the followinng table: length weight 1616 47.0 48.7 1862 2855 55.7 45.2 1199 1320 44.7 1225 43.8 870 38.5 1455 45.8 1220 44.0 1033 40.4 Compute the correlation between length and weight for these fish.
