Question

Transcribed Image Text:An article in Air and Waste ("Update on Ozone Trends in California's South Coast Air Basin," Vol. 43, 1993) studied the ozone levels
on the South Coast air basin of California for the years 1976-1991. The author believes that the number of days that the ozone
exceeds 0.20 parts per million depends on the seasonal meteorological index (the seasonal average 850 millibar temperature). The
data follow:

Six different commercial bricks were evaluated. The life span of a smelter pot depends on the porosity of the brick lining (the less porosity, the longer the life span); consequently, the researchers measured the apparent porosity of each brick specimen, as well as the mean pore diameter of each brick. See the table. Apparent Porosity (y). Mean Pore Diameter (x). Click the icon to view the table.
