The Student Government Association at Southwestern State University wanted to demonstrate the relationship between the number of beers a student drinks and their blood alcohol content (BAC). A random sample of 18 students participated in a study in which each participating student was randomly assigned a number of 12-ounce cans of beer to drink. Thirty minutes after consuming their assigned number of beers a member of the local sheriff's office measured their blood alcohol content. The sample information is reported below.
