The global average carbon footprint is 4 metric tons per person. Why do you think the US has a much higher average carbon footprint per person? The average world temperature has increased by 2 degrees fahrenheit over the last 140 years. Experts predict the average world temperature could increase by another 2-10 degrees fahrenheit by the year 2100. What are 3 possible consequences that could result from this warming? The US has one of the highest carbon footprints per capita...

I believe that the number of times a person will yawn in a day is normally distributed, with a standard deviation of 3. If I do a study of 36 random individuals, and they have an average of 12 daily yawns with a standard deviation of 3.6, find a 99% confidence interval for the standard deviation in the number of daily yawns for the population of all people.
