A quality engineer for a pharmaceutical company wants to determine the shelf life for pills that contain a new drug. The concentration of the drug in the pills decreases over time. The engineer wants to determine when the pills get to 90% of the intended concentration. Because this is a new drug, the company has only 5 pilot batches to use to estimate the shelf life. The engineer tests one pill from each batch at nine different times.
