Below is a table for eruptions of Old Faithful: The duration of the eruption and the time interval after the eruption before the next eruption. Duration: 242, 255, 227, 251, 262, 207, 140 Interval After: 81, 92, 102, 94 Perform correlation and regression analysis at a significance level of 0.05. What is the expected interval after when the duration is 245? Duration is the independent variable.

The data represents the heights of eruptions by a geyser. Use the heights to construct a stemplot. Which plot represents a stemplot of the data? Height of eruption (in.) 120 98 110 150 140 110 100 130 110 129 130 117 117 124 120 120 134 130 106 148

The following data represents the length of eruption for a random sample of eruptions at the Old Faithful geyser in Yellowstone National Park. 99 86 88 87 84 102 87 89 84 75 81 62 80 88 92 92 87 95 88 95 89 99 87 67 74 98 94 79 96 92 85 91 80 86 82 89 91 99 90 78 95 58 88 90 Use the data to calculate the following: a. Mean b. Median c. Range d. Q1 e. Q3 f. IQR Create a boxplot of the data from question #1.
