Part 1: Prepare
Familiarize yourself with the following data.
In 1955, scientists R.R. Sokal and P.E. Hunter analyzed the affects of pesticides on houseflies. Among the data sets they collected were samples of housefly wing lengths. These are normally distributed. The data they collected is summarized in the following frequency distribution.
