Chapter 1.2, Problem 13E
Allowable mechanical properties for structural design of metallic aerospace vehicles requires an approved method for statistically analyzing empirical test data. The article “Establishing Mechanical Property Allowables for Metals” (J. of Testing and Evaluation, 1998: 293-299) used the accompanying data on tensile ultimate strength (ksi) as a basis for addressing the difficulties in developing such a method.

- a. Construct a stem-and-leaf display of the data by first deleting (truncating) the tenths digit and then repeating each stem value five times (once for leaves 1 and 2. a second time for leaves 3 and 4. etc.). Why is it relatively easy to identify a representative strength value?
- b. Construct a histogram using equal-width classes with the first class having a lower limit of 122 and an upper limit of 124. Then comment on any interesting features of the histogram.

A manufacturer of a new medication on the market for Parkinson's disease makes a claim that the medication is effective in 75% of people who have the disease. One hundred fifty individuals with Parkinson's disease are given the
medication, and 100 of them note the medication was effective. Does this finding provide statistical evidence at the 0.05 level that the effectiveness is less than the 75% claim the company made? Make sure to include parameter,
conditions, calculations, and a conclusion in your answer.

- Which non-parametric test for ordinal data is the best to use in the given scenario? In a study by Zuckerman and Heneghan, hemodynamic stresses were measured on subjects undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. An outcome variable of interest was the ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV) measured in mm. A portion of the data appears in the following table. Baseline refers to a measurement taken 5 minutes after induction of anesthesia, and the term '5 minutes' refers to a measurement taken 5 minutes after baseline.
