Last day of stats on the computers

Today is our last day of the statistics unit.  You will work with a partner and a computer to process two data sets that are in the file below.  The tasks are outlined in the file.  You should print out your results or email them to me (dhaupt@sch.ci.lexington.ma.us) when you are done.  You should finish before the end of the block to show that you are ready for Monday's test.

File of data (runs Excel).
