Commercial eggs produced from different housing systems. Refer to the Food Chemistry (Vol. 106, 2008) study of four different types of egg housing systems, Exercise 9.33 (p. 522). Recall that the four housing systems were cage, barn, free
Housing | Wtclass | Overrun (%) |
Cage | M | 495, 462, 488, 471,471 |
L | 502,472,474, 492,479 | |
Free | M | 513, 510, 510 |
L | 520, 531, 521 | |
Barn | M | 515, 516, 514 |
L | 526, 501, 508 | |
Organic | M | 532, 511, 527 |
L | 530, 544, 531 |
- a. Identify the factors and treatments for this experiment.
- b. Use statistical software to conduct an ANOVA on the data. Report the results in an ANOVA table.
- c. Is there evidence of interaction between housing system and weight class? Test using α = .05. [Hint: Due to an unbalanced design, you will need to analyze the data using the general linear model procedure of your statistical software.] What does this imply, practically?
- d. Interpret the main effect test for housing system (using α = .05). What does this imply, practically?
- e. Interpret the main effect test for weight class (using α = .05). What does this imply, practically?

Tossing three coinsarrow_forwardUrban Travel Times Population of cities and driving times are related, as shown in the accompanying table, which shows the 1960 population N, in thousands, for several cities, together with the average time T, in minutes, sent by residents driving to work. City Population N Driving time T Los Angeles 6489 16.8 Pittsburgh 1804 12.6 Washington 1808 14.3 Hutchinson 38 6.1 Nashville 347 10.8 Tallahassee 48 7.3 An analysis of these data, along with data from 17 other cities in the United States and Canada, led to a power model of average driving time as a function of population. a Construct a power model of driving time in minutes as a function of population measured in thousands b Is average driving time in Pittsburgh more or less than would be expected from its population? c If you wish to move to a smaller city to reduce your average driving time to work by 25, how much smaller should the city be?arrow_forward
