c. Draw a diagram for a completely randomized design that describes the experiment.
d. The life of the paint gloss of the old paint is normally distributed with mean 36 months and standard deviation 2.5 months. The average life of the gloss for the new cans was 50 months with a standard deviation of 1.6 months. Do you think the new paint is superior? Support your claim with data evidence.
