Chapter 14.5, Problem 1Q
The following data come from a field trial set up to assess the effects of different amounts of potash on the breaking strength of cotton fibers (28). The experiment was done in three blocks. The five treatment levels-36, 54, 72, 108, and 144 lbs of potash per acre-were assigned randomly within each block. The variable recorded was the Pressley strength index. Compare the effects of the different levels of potash applications using Friedman’s test. Let

Pam, Rob and Sam get a cake that is one-third chocolate, one-third vanilla, and one-third strawberry as shown below. They wish to fairly divide the cake using the lone chooser method. Pam likes strawberry twice as much as chocolate or vanilla. Rob only likes chocolate. Sam, the chooser, likes vanilla and strawberry twice as much as chocolate. In the first division, Pam cuts the strawberry piece off and lets Rob choose his favorite piece. Based on that, Rob chooses the chocolate and vanilla parts. Note: All cuts made to the cake shown below are vertical.Which is a second division that Rob would make of his share of the cake?
Three players (one divider and two choosers) are going to divide a cake fairly using the lone divider method. The divider cuts the cake into three slices (s1, s2, and s3).
If the choosers' declarations are Chooser 1: {s1 , s2} and Chooser 2: {s2 , s3}.
Using the lone-divider method, how many different fair divisions of this cake are possible?
