Question:

The article “Measuring and Understanding the Aging of Kraft Insulating Paper in Power Transformers” (IEEE Electrical Insul. Mag., 1996: 28–34) contained the following observations on degree of polymerization for paper specimens for which viscosity times concentration fell in a certain middle range:

418 421 421 422 425 427 431 434 437 439 446 447 448 453 454 463 465

a. Construct a boxplot of the data and comment on any interesting features.

b. Is it plausible that the given sample observations were selected from a normal distribution?

c. Calculate a two-sided 95% confidence interval for true average degree of polymerization (as did the authors of the article). Does the interval suggest that 440 is a plausible value for true average degree of polymerization?

What about 450?
