Textbook Question
Chapter 13.13, Problem 71E
Refer to Exercise 13.42. Answer part (a) by fitting complete and reduced models.
13.42 The accompanying table presents data on yields relating to resistance to stain for three materials (M1, M2, and M3) treated with four chemicals in a randomized block design. (A low value indicates good stain resistance.)
- a Is there evidence of differences in mean resistance among the four chemicals? Give bounds for the p-value.
- b What would you conclude at the α = .05 level of significance?

1. What does it imply if if more values are concentrated above the mean? (Skewness) And would the value of skewness be less than, greater than, or equal to 0?
2. In case the data is highly skewed, can we still rely on the kurtosis coefficient? Why or why not?
3. Can the z-score be a real measure of dispersion?
If X1 and X2 constitute a random sample of size n = 2from an exponential population, find the efficiency of 2Y1relative to X, where Y1 is the first order statistic and 2Y1and X are both unbiased estimators of the parameter
