1.1٧. Ṡuppoṡe that you want to de ṡign an experiment toṡtudy the proportion of unpopped kernel ṡ of
popcorn. Completeṡtepṡ 1-3 of the guidelineṡ for deṡigningexperimentṡ in Ṡection1.4. Are thereany major
ṡourceṡ of variationthat wouldbe difficult to control?
Ṡtep 1 ²Recognition of and ṡtatement of the problem.
Poṡṡible problemṡtatement would be²find the beṡt
combinationof inputṡ that maximize
ṡ yield on popcorn²minimizeunpoppedkernelṡ.
Ṡtep 2 ²Ṡelection of the re
ṡponṡe variable. Poṡṡible reṡponṡeṡ are number of unpopped kernel
ṡ per 100
kernalṡ in experiment, weightof unpoppedkernelṡ verṡuṡ the total weightof kernelṡ cooked.
Ṡtep 3 ²Choiceof factorṡ, levelṡ and range. Poṡṡible factorṡ and levelṡ are brand of popcorn (levelṡ:
cheap,expenṡive), age of popcorn (level
ṡ: freṡh, old), type of cooking method (level
ṡ: ṡtovetop, microwave),
temperature(levelṡ: 150C, 250C),cookingtime (levelṡ: 3 minuteṡ, 5 minuteṡ), amountof cookingoil (levelṡ,1
