Question:
When it rains, it pours. Figure 14.12 plots the highest yearly precipitation ever recorded in each state against the highest daily precipitation ever recorded in that state. The points for Alaska (AK), Hawaii (HI), and Texas (TX)
are marked on the scatterplot.
(a) About what are the highest daily and yearly precipitation values for Alaska?
(b) Alaska and Hawaii have very high yearly maximums relative to their daily maximums. Omit these two states as outliers. Describe the nature of the relationship for the other states. Would knowing a state’s highest daily precipitation be a great help in predicting that state’s highest yearly precipitation?
