(choose chapter or problem)

Silicone implant augmentation rhinoplasty is used to correctcongenital nose deformities. The success of the proceduredepends on various biomechanical properties of the humannasal periosteum and fascia. The article Biomechanics inAugmentation Rhinoplasty (J. of Med. Engr. and Tech.,2005: 1417) reported that for a sample of 15 (newlydeceased) adults, the mean failure strain (%) was 25.0, andthe standard deviation was 3.5.a. Assuming a normal distribution for failure strain, estimatetrue average strain in a way that conveys informationabout precision and reliability.b. Predict the strain for a single adult in a way that conveysinformation about precision and reliability. Howdoes the prediction compare to the estimate calculatedin part (a)?
