Body-mass index, or BMI, takes both weight and height into account when assessing whether an individual is underweight or overweight. BMI varies directly as one's weight, in pounds, and inversely as the square of one's height, in inches. In adults, normal values for the BMI are between 20 and 25, inclusive. Values below 20 indicate that an individual is underweight and values above 30 indicate that an individual is obese. A person who weighs 180 pounds and is 5 feet, or 60 inches, tall has a BMI of 35.15. What is the BMI, to the nearest tenth, for a 170 pound person who is 5 feet 10 inches tall. Is this person overweight?

1.1 A company compares two temperature instruments daily: one coupled to a processor computer and the other used for visual control. Day-to-day variation is expected. On each of three days, the two instruments are used to measure the temperature. Ideally, these two instruments should agree. How many factors are there in this experiment? What are they? List the levels for each factor.
