Foot ulcers are common problem for people with diabetes. Higher skin
temperatures on the foot indicate an increased risk of ulcers. The article “An
Intelligent Insole for Diabetic Patients with the Loss of Protective Sensation"
(Kimberly Anderson, M.S. Thesis, Colorado School of Mines), reports
measurements of temperatures, in °F, of both feet for 18 diabetic patients. The
results are presented in the Table Q1.

The Journal of Engineering in Industry (Aug. 1993) reported on an automated system designed to replace
the cutting tool of a drilling machine at optimum times. To test the system, data were collected over a
broad range of materials, drill sizes, drill speeds, and feed rates – called machining conditions. Although a
total of 168 different machining conditions were possible, only eight were employed in this study. These

- PLE collects a variety of data from special studies, many of which are related to the quality of its products. The company collects data about functional test performance of its mowers after assembly; results from the past 30 days are given in the worksheet Mower Test. In addition, many in-process measurements are taken to ensure that manufacturing processes remain in control and can produce according to design specifications. The worksheet Blade Weight shows 350 measurements of blade weights taken from the manufacturing process that produces mower blades during the most recent shift. Elizabeth Burke has asked you to study these data from an analytics perspective. Drawing upon your experience, you have developed a number of questions: For the mower test data, what distribution might be appropriate to model the failure of an individual mower?
