Question

A lead inspector at ElectroTech, an electronics assembly shop, wants to convince management that it takes longer, on a per-component basis, to inspect large devices with many components than it does to inspect small devices because it is difficult to keep track of which components have already been inspected. To prove her point, she has collected data from the last 25 devices. The data are shown in the accompanying table.

Number of Components

on Device

a.

A scatterplot of the above data is shown below. Does the lead inspector’s claim seem credible?

Explanation / Answer

From the scatter plot, we can conclude that increased the number of components on Device increased the Inspection Time and decrease the number of components on Device decreased the Inspection Time. So, the lead inspection's seem is credible.

Ans: Yes.

b-2. The largest R^2 value is 0.9614 with corresponding to Cubic model. Hence, the best model fit is 'cubic model'.
