Tornado damage. The states differ greatly in the kinds of severe weather thatafflict them. Table 1.3 shows the average property damage caused by tornadoes peryear over the period from 1950 to 1999 in each of the 50 states and Puerto Rico.20(To adjust for the changing buying power of the dollar over time, all damageswere restated in 1999 dollars.)(a) What are the top five states for tornado damage? The bottom five? (IncludePuerto Rico, though it is not a state.)(b) Make a histogram of the data, by hand or using software, with classes0 damage < 10, 10 damage < 20, and so on. Describe the shape, center,and spread of the distribution. Which states may be outliers? (To understandthe outliers, note that most tornadoes in largely rural states such as Kansascause little property damage. Damage to crops is not counted as propertydamage.)(c) If you are using software, also display the default histogram that yoursoftware makes when you give it no instructions. How does this compare withyour graph in (b)?
