Wind Generator Location: Five different locations are being considered for locating a set of horizontal axis wind generators.  These turbines have a cut in speed of 6 m/s and a cut out speed of 27 m/s, so the investigators are looking for a location that will make the best use of the turbines.  In general, higher wind speeds (below 27 m/s) will result in more electricity production, so they would like a comparison of the wind measurement speeds that have been observed in their exploration in order to help make a proper decision.  Help the investigators understand this data by conducting an analysis. Be sure to include an overview of the problem, a structured analysis of the problem with a formal write-up of your results (in addition to software output), and an interpretation of the results. Use the attached data set for the scenario above.
