Using the data from Exercise 13, construct a stem and leaf plot or a box plot. Do these graphs indicate that the assumptions discussed in Section 4.5 are valid? Discuss possible alternatives.
Exercise 13
A truth in labeling regulation states that no more than 1% of units may vary by more than 2% from the weight stated on the label. The label of a product states that units weigh 10 oz. each. A sample of 20 units yielded the following:
10.01 9.92 9.82 10.04
10.04 10.06 9.97 9.94
9.97 9.86 10.02 10.14
9.97 9.97 9.97 10.05
10.19 10.10 9.95 10.00
At α = 0:05 can we conclude that these units satisfy the regulation?
