Y-intercept is 100 and slope is 5. Partner gave example: Younger brother had 100 small building blocks, but lost 5 of them every

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Since he lost 5 every month, it should be that the slope is -5, not 5, he is not gaining 5 every month

yint is 100 and slope is -5 would be correct
b=-5m+100
b=number of blocks he has after m months

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

gregori [183]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation: The null and alternative hypothesis for this test are:

$H_{0}: s_{1}^{2} = s_{2}^{2}$

$H_{a}: s_{1}^{2} > s_{2}^{2}$

To test it, use F-test statistics and compare variances of each treatment.

Calculate F-value:

$F=\frac{s^{2}_{1}}{s^{2}_{2}}$

$F=\frac{1.26^{2}}{0.93^{2}}$

$F=\frac{1.5876}{0.8649}$

F = 1.8356

The <u>critical value of F</u> is given by a F-distribution table with:

degree of freedom (row): 20 - 1 = 19

degree of freedom (column): 20 - 1 = 19

And a significance level: α = 0.05

$F_{critical}$ = 2.2341

Comparing both values of F:

1.856 < 2.2341

i.e. F-value calculated is less than F-value of the table.

Therefore, failed to reject $H_{0}$ , meaning there is <u>no sufficient data to support the claim</u> that sham treatment have pain reductions which vary more than for those using magnets treatment.
