Example
A manufacturer of paper used for making grocery bags is interested in improving the tensile strength of
the product. Product engineering thinks that tensile strength is a function of the hardwood concentration
in the pulp and that the range of hardwood concentrations of practical interest is between 5 and 20%. A
team of engineers responsible for the study decides to investigate four levels of hardwood concentration:
5, 10, 15, and 20%. They decide to make up six test specimens at each concentration level, using a pilot
plant. All 24 specimens are tested on a laboratory tensile tester, in random order. The data from this
experiment are shown below:
Use the ANOVA to test the hypothesis that different hardwood concentrations do not affect the mean
tensile strength of the paper.
