Well the line that bisects RS, will cut RS in two equal halves, therefore, that line will cut RS perpendicularly at the midpoint of RS.

now, what the dickens is the midpoint of RS anyway?

\bf \textit{middle point of 2 points }\\ \quad \\
\begin{array}{lllll}
&x_1&y_1&x_2&y_2\\
%  (a,b)
R&({{ -1}}\quad ,&{{ 6}})\quad 
%  (c,d)
S&({{ 5}}\quad ,&{{ 5}})
\end{array}\qquad
%   coordinates of midpoint 
\left(\cfrac{{{ x_2}} + {{ x_1}}}{2}\quad ,\quad \cfrac{{{ y_2}} + {{ y_1}}}{2} \right)
\\\\\\
\left( \cfrac{5-1}{2}~~,~~\cfrac{5+6}{2} \right)\implies \stackrel{midpoint}{\left(2~~,~~\frac{11}{2}  \right)}

so, we know that perpendicular line, will have to go through (2, 11/2)

now, a perpendicular line to RS, will have a negative reciprocal slope to it.  Well, what is the slope of RS anyway?

\bf \begin{array}{lllll}
&x_1&y_1&x_2&y_2\\
%   (a,b)
&({{ -1}}\quad ,&{{ 6}})\quad 
%   (c,d)
&({{ 5}}\quad ,&{{ 5}})
\end{array}
\\\\\\
% slope  = m
slope = {{ m}}= \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies 
\cfrac{{{ y_2}}-{{ y_1}}}{{{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}}}\implies \cfrac{5-6}{5-(-1)}\implies \cfrac{5-6}{5+1}\implies -\cfrac{1}{6}

and let's check the reciprocal negative of that,

\bf \textit{perpendicular, negative-reciprocal slope for slope}\quad -\cfrac{1}{6}\\\\
slope=-\cfrac{1}{{{ 6}}}\qquad negative\implies  +\cfrac{1}{{{ 6}}}\qquad reciprocal\implies + \cfrac{{{ 6}}}{1}\implies 6

so, then, what's is the equation of a line whose slope is 6, and goes through 2, 11/2?

\bf \begin{array}{lllll}
&x_1&y_1\\
%   (a,b)
&({{ 2}}\quad ,&{{ \frac{11}{2}}})
\end{array}
\\\\\\
% slope  = m
slope = {{ m}}= \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies 6
\\\\\\
% point-slope intercept
\stackrel{\textit{point-slope form}}{y-{{ y_1}}={{ m}}(x-{{ x_1}})}\implies y-\cfrac{11}{2}=6(x-2)
\\\\\\
y-\cfrac{11}{2}=6x-12\implies -6x+y=-12+\cfrac{11}{2}\implies \stackrel{\textit{standard form}}{-6x+y=-\cfrac{13}{2}}

A study was conducted to determine whether magnets were effective in treating pain. The values represent measurements of pain us
amm1812

Answer:

Given:

Sham: n= 20,     x=0.44,   s=1.24,

Magnet:n= 20,  x =0.49,   s= 0.95

For Sham:

Sample size, n = 20

Sample mean = 0.44

Standard deviation = 1.24

For Magnet:

Sample size = 20

Sample mean = 0.49

Standard deviation = 0.95

The null and alternative hypotheses:

H0: s1²=s2²

H1: s1² ≠ s2²

a) To find the test statistics, use the formula:

\frac{s1^2}{s2^2}

\frac{1.24^2}{0.95^2} = \frac{1.5376}{0.9025} = 1.7037

Test statistics = 1.7037

b) P-value:

Sham: degrees of freedom = n - 1 = 20 - 1 = 19

Magnet: degrees of freedom = n - 1 = 20 - 1 = 19

The critical values:

[Za/2, df1, df2)], [(1 - Za/2), df1, df2]

f[0.05/2, 19, 19], f[(1 - 0.05/2), 19, 19]

f[0.025, 19, 19], f[0.975, 19, 19]

(2.526, 0.3958)

The rejection region:

Reject H0, if  F < 0.3958 or if F > 2.526

c) Conclusion:

Since the critical values of test statistic is between (0.3958 < 1.7037 < 2.526), we fail to reject null hypothesis H0.

There is insufficient evidence to to support the claim that those given a sham treatment have reductions that vary more than those treated with magnets
