Refer to Data Set 29 “Coin Weights” in Appendix B for the weights (g) of randomly selected quarters that were minted after 1964. The quarters are supposed to have a median weight of 5.670 g. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that the median is equal to 5.670 g. Do quarters appear to be minted according to specifications?

Refer to the indicated data set in Appendix B and use the sign test for the claim about the median of a population.

Data Set 21: Earthquakes 

Data are from 600 matched pairs (first five rows shown here) of magnitude>depth measurements randomly selected from 10,594 earthquakes recorded in one year from a location in southern California. Only earthquakes with a magnitude of at least 1.00 are used. MAGNITUDE is magnitude measured on the Richter scale and DEPTH is depth in km. The magnitude and depth both describe the source of the earthquake. The data are from the Southern California Earthquake Data Center.
