The density of the earth. In 1798 the English scientist Henry Cavendish measured the density of the earth by careful work with a torsion balance. The variable recorded was the density of the earth as a multiple of the density of water. Here are Cavendish's 29 measurements:23
Present these measurements graphically by either a stemplot or a histogram and explain the reason for your choice. Then brie?y discuss the main features of the distribution. In particular, what is your estimate of the density of the earth based on these measurements?
