A statistics instructor at a large western university would like to examine the relationship
(if any) between the number of optional homework problems students do during the
semester and their final course grade. She randomly selects 12 students for study and
asks them to keep track of the number of these problems completed during the course of
the semester. At the end of the class each student's total marks is recorded along with their
final grade. The data follow in Table 2.

- Americans' trust in government and the media has generally been on a downward trend since pollsters first asked questions on these topics in the second half of the twentieth century. Trust in government hit an all-time low of 14% in 2014, while trust in the media bottomed out at 32% in 2016. The bar graph shows the percentage of Americans trusting in the government and the media for five selected years. Use this information to answer parts a-c. a.
