=+45. Golf courses. A start-up company is planning to build a new golf course. For marketing purposes, the company would like to be able to advertise the new course as one of the more difficult courses in the state of Vermont. One measure of the difficulty of a golf course is its length: the total distance (in yards) from tee to hole for all 18 holes.

Here are the histogram and summary statistics for the lengths of all the golf courses in Vermont.
