An article in Technometrics (1999, Vol. 41, pp. 202-211) studied the capability of a gauge by measuring the weight of paper. The data
for repeated measurements of one sheet of paper are in the following table. Construct a 95% one-sided, upper confidence interval for
the standard deviation of these measurements. Assume population is approximately normally distributed.
Round your answer to 3 decimal places.

- Students investigating the packaging of potato chips purchased 6bags of chips marked with a net weight of 28.1 grams. They carefully weighed the contents of each bag, recording the following weights (in grams): 29.2, 28.1, 29.2, 28.6, 28.7, 28.7. Complete parts a through c below. a) Do these data satisfy the assumptions for inference? Explain. b) Find the mean and standard deviation of the weights. (round to two decimal places) c) Create a 95% confidence interval for the mean weight of such bags of chips.

- 1. Do you think the gamma distribution is a reasonable model for the data? What are the relevant considerations? Summarize your thoughts and conclusion(s) in 2-3 sentences. 2. Determine a way to estimate the bias of 0 under the gamma model. Does it seem large in context? 3. Refer to the attached data table. The ôH column reports estimated standard deviations for each measurement. How might you use these to estimate varH? Sketch out an approach by listing a few steps, and explain your reasoning.
