A high school teacher at a small private school assigns trigonometry practice problems to be worked via

net. Students must use a password to access the problems and time of log –in and log –off are
automatically recorded for the teacher. at the end of the week, the teacher examines the amount of
time each student spent working the assigned problems. The data is provided below in minutes.
