1. An experiment was performed to study the effects of humidity and temperature at time of
manufacture on the degradation of a chemical product. The experiment used three levels
of humidity and four levels of temperature in a full factorial design. The experiment de-
sign was replicated three times and blocked on replicates. The orders of the humidity and
temperature levels were randomized within blocks.

statistics (standard error, R-squared, and R-squared-adjusted) and interpret the re-
sults.
(b) Refine the model using Occam's Razor, recalculate the summary statistics, and inter-
