Mr. Thomas is growing melons on his high desert farm. He knows from experience that the melons will ripen well if they get no less than seventeen inches of rain during the growing season. This year it has rained eleven times. The amount of rain (in inches) that fell each time was: 1.3, 2.1, 1.6, 2.3, 2.9, 2.3, 0.6, 2.9, 2.3, 2.3, and 2.6. Is this enough rain to allow his melon crop to be successful?
