An experiment was designed with the intention of studying the treatment with urea and aqueous ammonia of the ear of wheat. The purpose was to improve the nutritional value for male ewes. The dietary treatments were: control, urea in the feed, spike treated with ammonia, spike treated with urea. In the experiment, 24 sheep were used and they were separated according to their relative weight into 6 groups. The digested dry matter measured in percentage was recorded and it is known: (image) Find Blocking factor, number of experimental runs, Experimental unit, Response variable and factor of interest

A pharmaceutical company tested the impact of four cholesterol-reducing medications (denoted A, B, C and D) on people at high risk of heart attack. For this clinical trial 20 volunteers with LDL (bad) cholesterol levels of 140 mg/dl were randomly assigned to one of the four medications. The subjects were instructed to take one tablet per day for a period of three months after which their LDL levels were again measured. Below are the amounts (in mg/dl) by which the LDL levels decreased after the three month trial.

(e) If a key assumption in (d) is not satisfied, test if the data provide sufficient ev- idence to indicate that at least one of the medications produces a mean reduc- tion in LDL cholesterol that is different from any of the other medications using a non-parametric method (show all working and…
In a study conducted at Virginia Tech, the plasma ascorbic acid levels of pregnant women were compared for smokers versus nonsmokers. Thirty women in the last three months of pregnancy, free of major health disorders and ranging in age from 15 to 32 years, were selected for the study. Prior to the collection of 20 ml of blood, the participants were told to avoid breakfast, forgo their vitamin supplements, and avoid foods high in ascorbic acid content. From the blood samples, the accompanying plasma ascorbic acid values were determined, in milligrams per 100 milliliters. Is there sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a difference between plasma ascorbic acid levels of smokers and nonsmokers? Assume that the two sets of data came from normal populations with unequal variances. Use a P-value. Click the icon to view the plasma ascorbic acid values. Let sample 1 be the nonsmokers and let sample 2 be the smokers. State the null and alternative hypotheses. Hoi Hi-H2 = 0 (Type integers…

They conducted an experiment to compare the new fertilizer to the old fertilizer. They divided tomato plants into two groups. They applied the new fertilizer to one group and the old fertilizer to another group.

The General Social Survey (GSS) collects data on demographics, eduction and work, among many other characteristics of US residents. Suppose we want to estimate the difference between the average number of hours worked by all Americans with a college degree and those without a college degree. Is there sufficient evidence that there is a significant difference between the average number of hours worked by those Americans with a college degree vs. those Americans without a college degree? Use the following output: Welch Two Sample t-testdata: yes and not = 3.1181, df = 1098.5, p-value = 0.001867alternative hypothesis: true difference in means is not equal to 095 percent confidence interval: 1.011652 4.445822sample estimates:mean of x mean of y 42.81574 40.08701 Using the provided output, find the 95% confidence interval for the difference of the average amount of hours worked for those that have a college degree vs. those that do not have a college degree (ie: for the difference of two…

To evaluate the coagulation effects of three drugs, 30 healthy volunteers were randomly assigned into 3 groups and injected with different drugs. Their relevant coagulation times were measured as follows A(group=1): 36.8 34.4 34.3 35.7 33.2 31.1 34.3 29.8 35.4 31.2B(group=2): 40.0 35.5 36.7 39.3 40.1 36.8 33.4 38.3 38.4 39.8C(group=3): 32.9 37.9 30.5 31.1 34.7 37.6 40.2 38.1 32.4 35.6Questions: ① If you want to evaluate whether the coagulation effects of the three drugs are different, which method should be used? and what are the model assumptionsfor the application of this method?② Compare the difference of the coagulation effects among three drugs by SPSS,present the main results and make interpretation.③ Make pairwise comparisons of the efficacy of the three drugs, write out the method of pairwise comparison you adopted (just write one method) and the corresponding p-values.
