NOVELS The table shows the lengths (in words) of the seven novels on the required reading list of Miguel's language arts class. \begin{tabular}{|l|l|} \hline Novel & Number of Words \\ \hline Old Yeller & 35,968 \\ \hline Lord of the Flies & 59,900 \\ \hline Moby Dick & 206,052 \\ \hline Jane Eyre & 183,858 \\ \hline Great Expectations & 183,349 \\ \hline Call of the Wild & 31,750 \\ \hline The Color Purple & 66,556 \\ \hline \end{tabular} a. Find the mean, median, and mode for the data set. If there is no mode, write none. mean = ? median = ? mode = ? b. If Lord of the Flies comes with an additional 10,020 -word online reading assignment, then how will the median length be affected? How will the mean be affected? The median will change from ? to ? , a difference of ? words. The mean will change from ? to ? , a difference of ? words.

Problem 1: Analysis of Stirring Rate and Furnace on Grain Size in Aluminum Master Alloy Production An aluminum master alloy manufacturer produces grain refiners in ingot form. The company operates four furnaces, each with its own unique operating characteristics. When conducting experiments involving multiple furnaces, the furnaces are considered as nuisance variables. The process engineers suspect that the stirring rate has an effect on the grain size of the product. Each furnace can be operated at four different stirring rates. To investigate the relationship between stirring rate and grain size, a randomized block design is conducted for a specific refiner. The resulting grain size data is stored in a file called "Alloy.csv". The following questions are addressed: (a) Is there any evidence that stirring rate affects grain size? (b) Graph the size data from this experiment on a normal probability plot and interpret the plot. (c) Plot the size versus furnace and stirring rate. Does this plot convey any useful information? (d) What should the process engineers recommend regarding the choice of stirring rate and furnace for this particular grain refiner if a small grain size is desirable? The data for stirring rate, furnace, and grain size is provided in the table below: Stirring_Rate Furnace Grain_Size 5 1 8 5 2 6 5 3 6 5 4 6 10 1 14 10 2 6 10 3 6 10 4 9 15 1 14 15 2 14 15 3 12 15 4 10 20 1 17 20 2 9 20 3 16 20 4 17

The average number of words in a romance novel is 64,272 and the standard deviation is 17,068. Assume the distribution is normal. Let X be the number of words in a randomly selected romance novel. Round all answers to 4 decimal places where possible. a. What is the distribution of X? X ~ N( b. Find the proportion of all novels that are between 55,738 and 71,099 words. c. The 90th percentile for novels is words. (Round to the nearest word) d. The middle 80% of romance novels have from words to words. (Round to the nearest word)
