Tonight, please describe the distributions for the four histograms provided in class. All answers should be written in complete sentences and should be thorough. Remember--you need to describe SOCS, and keep everything in context!

Here's a sample answer we drafted in period E for number 1. You can use this as a guide:

The distribution of the duration of Old Faithful eruptions is bimodal and roughly symmetric, with no apparent outliers. The median duration was approximately/about 3.5 to 4 minutes; the range of durations was about 4 minutes. Most eruptions either lasted under 2.5 minutes or over 4 minutes.
