An experiment was conducted to study the extrusion process of biodegradable packaging foam. Two of the factors considered for their effect on
the unit density (mg/ml) were the die temperature (145 °C vs. 155 °C) and the die diameter (3 mm vs. 4 mm). The results are stored in [Packaging
Foam 1]. Source: Data extracted from W. Y. Koh, K. M. Eskridge, and M. A. Hanna, "Supersaturated Split-Plot Designs," Journal of Quality

The steel is cut with a diamond saw and requires the resulting parts to be within 10.005 inch of the length specified by the automobile company. Data are collected from a sample of 50 steel parts and are shown in the following table. The measurement reported is the difference in inches between the actual length of the steel part, as measured by a laser measurement device, and the specified length of the steel part. For example, the first value, -0.003, represents a steel part that is 0.003 inch shorter than the specified length. Complete parts a through c Click the icon to view the data table. a.
