Chapter 11, Problem 53SE
In an automated chemical coating process, the speed with which objects on a conveyor belt are passed through a chemical spray (belt speed), the amount of chemical sprayed (spray volume), and the brand of chemical used (brand) are factors that may affect the uniformity of the coating applied. A replicated 23 experiment was conducted in an effort to increase the coating uniformity. In the following table, higher values of the response variable are associated with higher surface uniformity:

A manufacturer produces washdown motors for the food service industry. The company manufactures the motors to order by modifying a base model to meet the specifications requested by the customer. The motors are produced in a batch environment, with the batch size equal to the number ordered. The manufacturer has recently sampled 50 customer orders. The motor manufacturer would like to determine if there is a relationship between the cost of producing the order and the order size so that it could estimate the cost of producing a particular size order.
(A) Use the sample data to estimate the least squares regression model.
(B) Provide an interpretation of the regression coefficients.
(C) Test the significance of the overall regression model using a significance level of 0.02.
(D) The company has just received an order for 30 motors. Use the regression model developed in part a to estimate the cost of producing this particular order.

The stated goal of a chain of service stores is to provide a lube and oil change for anyone's automobile in 15 minutes. The manager at one store thinks that there is a growing disparity among his workers in the time it takes to lube and change the oil of an automobile. To monitor this, the manager has selected a sample of 20 days and has recorded the time it took to service 100
automobiles each day. Data about the number of times the service was performed in 15 minutes or less (515) are found below. Complete parts a through c

- The toco toucan, the largest member of the toucan family, possesses the largest beak relative to body size of all birds. This exaggerated feature has received various interpretations, such as being a refined adaptation for feeding. However, the large surface area may also be an important mechanism for radiating heat (and hence cooling the bird) as outdoor temperature increases. The table contains data for beak heat loss, as a percentage of total body heat loss from all sources, at various temperatures in degrees Celsius. The data show that beak heat loss is higher at higher temperatures and that the relationship is roughly linear.
