The golden ratio f = 1.618 is thought to be a “natural” relationship between length and breadth. At a = 0.05, use TABLE 1 to test the hypothesis that the ratio of length to breadth for these sample lakes is 1.618

  Similarly, test the hypotheses that the ratio is bigger than 2.26

  Correlate “length” versus “breadth.” Compute the line of regression. Graph it

  Divide the lakes into Western and Eastern hemispheres. Test the hypothesis that their ratios have the same sample means. Discuss the viability of that hypothesis, in light of your analysis

  Global warming is creating a new Great Lake. Suppose the length is 300 miles. Give a 90% confidence interval for the breadth of this new lake Use the approach given in Chapter 8 of the text, with a t statistic
NOTE:  RELY ON THE TABLE OF RATIOS — DO PROJECT BREADTH BASED ON THOSE RATIOS

Test the independence of the “length” and “breadth” variables using a chi-square test with  a = 0.05  USE TABLE TO FIND CHI-SQUARE ANOVA concern
