An Alaskan Malamute, A Great Candidate For Mars!

For this action project our class had knowledge of a group of people who are planning on traveling to Mars, since it is possible to live on mars we decided to bring a companion along, a pet. I chose an Alaskan Malamute a dog that I personally think is cable of surviving on this planet. One of the challenges for this project was to find a suitable dog that could adjust well to the cold. The thing I liked most about this project was the video because, it was somewhat like us stating our case on why our pet was the best.This action project also focused on math. We looked at central tendencies calculating all the data of different dogs, comparing them with ours, and the set notation. Down below is a picture of my dog, River and Video describing why it would be a great candidate to travel to Mars. Also down below are my math calculations.

We had to find our pet from an adoption agency, and also find 12 to 15 other animals that would then be arranged in a set notation, and central tendency. My Malamute is from Crystal  lake IL, and her name is River. These animals helped us find the standard deviation in weight among them.River was the outlier of the group of dogs weighing, 95 pounds. River is 2.323 standard deviations above the mean, 39.5  We also had to create a box and whisker plot from our data. There are many different areas on mars, since my dog is use to the cold it would live near the ice caps, and since its fur is dark it would be able to catch the sunlight producing warmth. My Alaskan Malamute would be a great candidate. Below you will see my voice recording and math calculations
