Ocean currents are important in studies of climate change, as well as ecology studies of dispersal of plankton. Drift bottles are used to study ocean currents in the Pacific near Hawaii, the Solomon Islands, New Guinea, and other islands. Let x represent the number of days to recovery of a drift bottle after release and y represent the distance from point of release to point of recovery in km/100. The following data are representative of one study using drift bottles to study ocean currents.
x days 75 76 35 91 203
y km/100 14.7 19.6 5.4 11.7 35.2
(a) Verify that ?x = 480, ?y = 86.6, ?x2 = 62,116, ?y2 = 2005.34, ?xy = 10991.4, and r ? 0.94059. ?x ?y ?x2 ?y2 ?xy r
(b) Use a 1% level of significance to test the claim ? > 0. (Use 2 decimal places.)
t
critical t
Conclusion
A) Reject the null hypothesis, there is sufficient evidence that ? > 0.
B) Reject the null hypothesis, there is insufficient evidence that ? > 0.
C) Fail to reject the null hypothesis, there is insufficient evidence that ? > 0.
D) Fail to reject the null hypothesis, there is sufficient evidence that ? > 0.
(c) Verify that Se ? 4.4072, a ? 1.2893, and b ? 0.1670.

(d) Find the predicted distance (km/100) when a drift bottle has been floating for 60 days. (Use 2 decimal places.)

(e) Find a 90% confidence interval for your prediction of part (d). (Use 1 decimal place.)
lower limit km/100
upper limit km/100
(f) Use a 1% level of significance to test the claim that ? > 0. (Use 2 decimal places.)

Conclusion
A) Reject the null hypothesis, there is sufficient evidence that ? > 0.
