Question

The efficiency ratio for a steel specimen immersed in a 
phosphating tank is the weight of the phosphate coating 
divided by the metal loss (both in mg/ft2
). The article 
“Statistical Process Control of a Phosphate Coating 
Line” (Wire J. Intl., May 1997: 78–81) gave the 
accompanying data on tank temperature (x) and efficiency ratio (y).
Temp. 170 172 173 174 174 175 176
Ratio .84 1.31 1.42 1.03 1.07 1.08 1.04
Temp. 177 180 180 180 180 180 181
Ratio 1.80 1.45 1.60 1.61 2.13 2.15 .84
Temp. 181 182 182 182 182 184 184
Ratio 1.43 .90 1.81 1.94 2.68 1.49 2.52
Temp. 185 186 188
Ratio 3.00 1.87 3.08
a. Construct stem-and-leaf displays of both temperature and efficiency ratio, and comment on interesting 
features.
b. Is the value of efficiency ratio completely and uniquely determined by tank temperature? Explain your 
 reasoning.
c. Construct a scatterplot of the data. Does it appear 
that efficiency ratio could be very well predicted by 
the value of temperature? Explain your reasoning.
