Calcium is essential to tree growth. In 1990, the concentration of calcium in precipitation in Chautauqua, New York, was 0.11 milligram per liter \( \left(\frac{\mathrm{mg}}{\mathrm{L}}\right) \). A random sample of 8 precipitation dates in 2018 results in the following data: \( 0.120 \quad 0.108 \) A normal probability plot suggests the data could come from a population that is normally distributed. A boxplot does not show any outliers. Does the sample evidence suggest that calcium concentrations have changed since 1990? Use the \( \mathrm{a}=0.1 \) level of significance.

Identify the population, the sample, and any population parameters or sample statistics in the given scenario. In the 1960 s, a poll of 2617 homeowners in the United States resulted in a report that the average price of a house in the U.S. was \( \$ 18,500 \). Answer O Population: none given: Sample: 2617 homeowners polled: Sample Statistic: \( \$ 18,500 \) Opopulation: U.S. homeowners: Sample: none given; Population Parameter: \( \$ 18,500 \)

A water bottling facility has a mean bottling rate of 35.2 thousand bottles per hour with a standard deviation of 2.04 thousand bottles, A nearby cola bottling facility has a mean bottling rate of 26.9 thousand bottles per hour with a standard deviation of 1.51 thousand bottles. One Wednesday from noon to \( 1: 00 \) p.m., the water bottling facility bottled 36.9 thousand bottles of water, and the cola bottling facility bottled 27.9 thousand bottles of cola. Which facility increased their efficiency more during that hour? Answer

A water bottling facility has a mean bottling rate of 33.5 thousand bottles per hour with a standard deviation of 1.92 thousand bottles. A nearby cola bottling facility has a mean bottling rate of 26.2 thousand bottles per hour with a standard deviation of 1.42 thousand bottles. One Wednesday from noon to \( 1: 00 \) p.m., the water bottling facility bottled 36.8 thousand bottles of water, and the cola bottling facility bottled 28.4 thousand bottles of cola. Which facility increased their efficiency more during that hour? Answer
