Learning Curves (23 and 24)
(We will not cover enough of 25 for the entire set of material in the Learning Curve to be appropriate and it will be not be covered only minimally on the Final Exam. The handout for Ch. 25 assigns a very minimal set of homework on that chapter, and no quiz problems. The homework assigned is considerably less than was on the homework sheet distributed in early March.)

Many of the problems on the final exam will require work with Minitab. You may not use anything on the computer during the test except Minitab, our class data files on the website, and just enough in Blackboard to submit your files.
