Use the Tornadoes data and your statistical expertise to answer the questions: Is it reasonable to claim that on average there are more than 45, tornado-related deaths in the month of April (per year)?

9. What test/procedure did you perform?

a. One-sided t-test
b. Two-sided t-test
c. Regression
d. Confidence interval

10. What is the P-Value/margin of error?

a. 0.723595771
b. 1.8
c. 0.007110117
d. 0.003555059
e. None of these

11. Statistical Interpretation

a. Since confidence interval does not include 45 we are confident that the number of tornado-related deaths is below 45.
b. Since P-value is small we are confident that the number of tornado-related deaths is below 45.
c. Since confidence interval includes 45 we are confident that the number of tornado-related deaths is below 45.
d. None of these.

12. Conclusion

a. Yes, I am confident that the above claim is reasonable.
b. No, I cannot claim that the above claim is reasonable.

Is the number of tornadoes increasing? In the last homework, data on the number of tornadoes in the United States between 1953 and 2014 were analyzed to see if there was a linear trend over time. Some argue that it’s not the number of tornadoes increasing over time, but rather the probability of sighting them because there are more people living in the United States. Let’s investigate this by including the U.S. census count (in thousands) as an additional explanatory...
