In a study of the relationship of the shape of a tablet to its dissolution time, 6 disk-shaped ibuprofen tablets and 8 oval-shaped ibuprofen tablets were dissolved in water. The dissolve times, in seconds, were as follows:
Disk: 269.0 249.3 255.2 252.7 247.0 261.6
Oval: 268.8 260.0 273.5 253.9 278.5 289.4 261.6 280.2

At certain levels it can cause lung cancer. Radon concentrations are measured in picocuries per liter (pCi/L). A radon level of 4 pCi/L is considered “acceptable” Radon levels in a house vary from week to week. In one house, a sample of 6 weeks had the following readings for radon level (in pCi/L): 1.9 2.8 3.9 3.9 4.2 5.7 Find the variance and standard deviation (definitional formula).

- Three different corrosion-resistant coatings are being considered for use on iron pipes. Ten pieces of pipe are marked off in six equal segments. For each pipe, two segments received coating A, two received coating B, and the remaining two received coating C. The pipes were placed in a corrosive environment for a period of time; then the depth of the deepest pit (in mm) caused by corrosion was measured for each segment on each pipe. The effect of interest is the coating; the pipe is a blocking factor, and there were two replications on each pipe. The following sums of squares were calculated: sum of squares for blocks = 11.2, sum of squares for treatments = 4.8, sum of squares for interactions = 18.4, total sum of squares = 44.7. a) Construct an ANOVA table. You may give ranges for the P-values. b) Are the assumptions for a randomized complete block design satisfied? Explain. c) Does the ANOVA table provide evidence that mean pit depth differs among coatings?

The ratio of the elements aluminum (Al) and ryllium (Be) in sediment is related to the duration of burial. The till specimens were obtained from five different boreholes (labeled UMRB-1, UMRB-2, UMRB-3, SWRA nd SD). The Al/Be ratios for a sample of 26 buried till specimens were determined and are shown in the accompanying table. Conduct an analysis of variance of the ata. Is there sufficient evidence to indicate differences among the mean Al/Be ratios for the five boreholes? Test, using α = 0.10.
