Isabelle was curious if sample maximum was an unbiased estimator of population maximum. She started with a large normally distributed population of test scores whose maximum was 99 points.
She then took a random sample of 6 tests and calculated the maximum of the sample. She replaced those
tests and repeated this process for a total of 40 trials. Her results are summarized in the dotplot below,
where each dot represents the maximum score from a sample of 6 tests.

Adecibel is a logarithmic unit that can be used to measure the intensity of a sound. the function y = 10logx gives the intensity of a sound in decibels, where x is the ratio of the intensity of the sound to a reference intensity. the reference intensity is generally set at the threshold of hearing. use the graphing utility to graph the decibel function.a whisper has a sound intensity of 30 decibels. use your graph to you complete the following statement. the sound intensity of a whisper is times the reference intensity.
