Handle strength data

An engineer records the force that is required to break each broom handle and notices that one of the values in the sample seems unusually small. You can use this data to demonstrate Outlier Test.

A quality engineer at a wooden handle company tests the strength of a random sample of broom handles. The engineer records the force that is required to break each handle. The engineer creates a graph of the data and notices that one of the values in the sample seems unusually small.

Because these data include a possible outlier, you can use it to demonstrate Outlier Test.
