The volume of a rock is measured by placing the rock in a graduated cylinder partially filled with water and measuring the increase in volume. Eight independent measurements are made. The average of the measurements is 87.0 mL, and the standard deviation is 2.0 mL.
(a) Estimate the volume of the rock, and find the uncertainty in the estimate.
(b) Eight additional measurements are made, for a total of 16. What is the uncertainty, approximately, in the average of the 16 measurements?
(c) Approximately how many measurements would be needed to reduce the uncertainty to 0.4 mL?

17. a researcher measures three variables, x, y, and z for each individual in a sample of n = 20. the pearson correlations for this sample are rxy = 0.6, rxz = 0.4, and ryz = 0.7. a. find the partial correlation between x and y, holding z constant. b. find the partial correlation between x and z, holding y constant. (hint: simply switch the labels for the variables y and z to correspond with the labels in the equation.) gravetter, frederick j. statistics for the behavioral sciences (p. 526). cengage learning. kindle edition.
