The efficiency ratio for a steel specimen immersed in a phosphating tank is the weight of the phosphate coating divided by the metal loss (both in mg/ft²). The article “Statistical Process Control of a Phosphate Coating Line” (Wire J. Intl., May 1997: 78–81) gave the accompanying data on tank temperature (x) and efficiency ratio (y).

a. Construct stem-and-leaf displays of both temperature and efficiency ratio, and comment on interesting features.

b. Is the value of efficiency ratio completely and uniquely determined by tank temperature? Explain your reasoning.

c. Construct a scatter plot of the data. Does it appear that efficiency ratio could be very well predicted by the value of temperature? Explain your reasoning.
