- a) Find a 90% confidence interval for the mean global temperature anomaly if the CO2 level reaches 450 ppm.
- b) Find a 90% prediction interval for the mean global temperature anomaly if the CO2 level reaches 450 ppm.
- c) The goal of the Paris Climate agreement is equivalent to a temperature anomaly of about 1.3 °C in our data. If CO2 levels do reach 450 ppm, would this be a plausible value?

- Using all 1991 birth records in the computerized national birth certificate registry compiled by the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS), statisticians Traci Clemons and Marcello Pagano found that the birth weights of babies in the United States are not symmetric ("Are babies normal?" The American Statistician, Nov 1999, 53:4). However, they also found that when infants born outside of the "typical" 37-43 weeks and infants born to mothers with a history of diabetes are excluded, the birth weights of the remaining infants do follow a Normal model with mean μ = 3432 g and standard deviation σ = 482 g.
