Describe the difference between a completely randomized design, a randomized block design, and a factorial experiment, and describe a situation in which each type of experiment would be utilized.
Give an example of a factorial experiment in which failure to randomize can produce incorrect results.
A banana grower has three fertilizers from which to choose. He would like to determine which fertilizer produces banana trees with the largest yield (measured in pounds of bananas produced). The banana grower has noticed that there is a difference in the average yields of the banana trees depending on which side of the farm they are planted (South Side, North Side, West Side, or East Side), therefore, a randomized block design is used in the study. Because of the variation in yields among the areas on the farm, the farmer has decided to randomly select three trees within each area and then randomly assign the fertilizers to the trees. After harvesting the bananas, he calculates the yields of the trees within each of the areas. Can the banana grower conclude that there is a significant difference among the average yields of the banana trees for the three fertilizers? The results are as follows.
Average Yield of Banana Trees

Fertilizer A
Fertilizer B

- just the multiple choice part question thank you!arrow_forwardSolve the 2nd question pleasearrow_forwardThe Salk vaccine against polio was tested in 1954 in a carefully designed field experiment. Approximately, 400,000 children took part in this experiment. Using a randomization procedure, the children were randomly divided into 2 groups of equal size, a treatment group, and a control group. The vaccine was given only to the children in the treatment group; the control group children received placebo injections. The children did not know which of the two groups they had been placed into. The diagnosticians also lacked this information. 57 children in the treatment group went on to contract polio, while 142 children in the control group contracted the illness. How likely would such a difference in outcomes be when the assignment to the treatment or control group had absolutely no effect on the outcomes?arrow_forward
- The FAA is interested in knowing if there is a difference in the average number of on-time arrivals for four of the major airlines. The FAA believes that the number of on-time arrivals varies by airport, therefore, a randomized block design is used for the study. To control for this variation, they randomly select 100100 flights for each of the major airlines at each of four randomly selected airports and record the number of on-time flights. Can the FAA conclude that there is a significant difference among the average number of on-time arrivals for the four major airlines? The results of the study are as follows.
