Twelve samples, each containing five parts, were taken from a process that produces steel rods at Emmanual Kodzi's factory. The length of each rod in the samples was determined. The results were tabulated and sample means and ranges were computed. The results were: Sample Sample Mean (in.) Range (in.) Sample Sample Mean (in.)
