A researcher conducts an experiment comparing two treatment conditions with 10 scores in each treatment condition. If an independent-measures design is used, how many participants are needed for the study? If a repeated-measures design is used, how many participants are needed for the study? If a matched-subjects design is used, how many participants are needed for the study?

Acne is a common skin disease that affects most adolescents and can continue into adulthood. A study compared the effectiveness of three acne treatments and a placebo, all in gel form, applied twice daily for 12 weeks. The study's 517 teenage volunteers were randomly assigned to one of the four treatments. Success was assessed as clear or almost clear skin at the end of the 12 week period. The results of the study can be seen in the table below. Using the appropriate statistical test, determine if there is significant evidence that the four treatments perform differently. If so, how do they compare.
