- A low resting heart rate can mean a high degree of physical fitness, which is associated with reduced rates of cardiac events like heart attacks. By working out regularly in the gym, the heart becomes more efficient, pumping the lowest amount of blood one needs when in a relaxed state. Normal resting heart rate for adults ranges from 60 to 100 beats per minute but a well-trained athlete can have a normal resting heart rate of 40 beats per minute. Dr. Castillejo wants to know if her gym members have attained this average resting heart rate of athletes. Use the R commander output below to address Dr. Castillejo's concern . Write a brief report about the analysis by identifying the set of hypotheses to be tested, the appropriate test to use, and implications and recommendations of/from the conclusions.

Up until the1960s it is estimated that 99% of the blue whale population was killed. Since then, whale harpooning hasbecome illegal in most countries. Because of this, numbers have started to rise again.In 1979, 700 whales were reported off the coast of California. In 1996, 2580 whales were reported off thecoast of California. The Law of Uninhibited Growth applies to this situation. Using the above data, find afunction of the form N(t) = N0e^kt which models the number of whales t years after 1979.

One might wonder how male Boston Marathon winning finish times compare with the average male Boston Wheelchair Marathon winning finish time of 98.3 minutes. Let's test whether male Boston Marathon winners, on average, take longer to finish than male Boston Wheelchair Marathon winners by performing a one-sample t-test.
