As seen in the boxplot and histogram plot, we have more values clustered at the right side of the distribution. Hence, this is a right (or positive skewed data)
B -
As the sample is not close to normal distribution, the population can not be approximated using the confidence intervals because the confidence intervals are based on the assumptions that the population and sample follows a normal distribution which is violated here.
C -
Mean of the sample (point estimate) = 27.3
Standard deviation of the sample = 17.7
t value (for (40-1) degrees of freedom and 0.05 significance level for a two tailed hypothesis) = 2
Standard error = std dev / sqrt (sample size - 1)
= 2.83
Margin of error = t vale * std error
= 5.7
Confidence interval -
27.3 - 5.7 to 27.3 + 5.7
= 21.6 to 33

1.88 Longleaf pine trees. The Wade Tract in Thomas County, Georgia, is an old- growth forest of longleaf pine trees (Pinus palustris) that has survived in a relatively undisturbed state since before the settlement of the area by Europeans. A study collected 584 of these trees.29 One of the variables measured was the diameter at breast height (DBH). This is the diameter of the tree at 4.5 feet and the units are centimeters (cm) Only trees with DBH greater than...
