Name: Tablets

Abstract: The quality engineer checked the thickness and hardness of 60 tablets (randomly chosen) that the pharmaceutical company produced. Tablets were to be within 2.5-4.5kb (hardness) and .105-.135in (thickness).

Variables (column):

1. Tablet Number (1-60)
2. Hardness required to break the tablet (kilograms of pressure (kp))
3. Thickness (inches)

Possible Uses: Correlation
