1.56 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 data on 584 of these trees. 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 1.5 cm were sampled. Here are the diameters of a random sample of 40 of these trees: PINES 27 10.5 13.3 26.0 18.3 52.2 9.2 26.1 17.6 40.5 31.8 47.2 11.4 2.7 69.3 44.4 16.9 35.7 5.4 44.2 2.2 4.3 7.8 38.1 2.2 11.4 51.5 4.9 39.7 32.6 51.8 43.6 2.3 44.6 31.5 40.3 22.3 43.3 37.5 29.1 27.9 (a) Find the five-number summary for these data.

Air pollutants common in U.S. cities include fine particulate matter (PM) and ozone (O3). PM is measured as “inhalable” particles 10 micrometers in diameter or “fine inhalable” particles 2.5 micrometers in diameter. Suppose that studies show, for a particular region, that cities exceed PM2.5 standards 20% of the time and exceed ozone standards 10% of the time. Assume that PM2.5 and ozone measurements are statistically independent. A) Determine the probability that a city, selected at random, exceeds one of the standards. B) If a city exceeds the standards, what is the probability that it exceeds only the PM2.5 standard?
