1. Can balloons hold more air or more water before bursting? A student purchased a large bag
of 12-inch balloons. He randomly selected 10 balloons from the bag and then randomly
assigned half of them to be filled with air until bursting and the other half to be filled with water
until bursting. He used devices to measure the amount of air and water was dispensed until the
balloons burst.
Here's the data:
Air (ft')
Water (ft)
0.52
0.44
0.58
0.41
0.50
0.55
0.46
0.61
0.38
0.45
Does the data give convincing evidence air filled balloons can attain a greater volume than
water filled balloons?
An experiment was conducted to study the extrusion process of biodegradable packaging foam. Two of the factors considered for their effect on the foam diameter (mm) were the die temperature(145°C vs.155°C) and the die diameter (3 mm vs. 4 mm). The results are in the accompanying data table.

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.
