NARRBEGIN: Gold Funds Gold Funds An investor studied the percentage rates of return of three different gold funds. Random samples of percentage rates of return for four periods were taken from each fund. The results appear in the table below: Gold Funds Percentage Rates Fund 1 Fund 2 Fund 3 12 4 9 15 8 3 13 6 5 14 5 7 17 4 4 NARREND -{Gold Funds Narrative} Set up the ANOVA Table. Use α\alpha = 0.05 to determine the critical value.

NARRBEGIN: Keyboard Configuration an Keyboard Configuration and Size The data shown below were taken from a 2 * 3 factorial experiment to examine the effects of factor A (keyboard configuration, 3 levels) and factor B (keyboard size, 2 levels) on typing speed. Each cell consists of the times needed for each of 4 randomly assigned keyboardists to type a standard document under each set of conditions (in minutes). nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; Factor B Factor A 1 2 1 26 24 19 21 20 20 21 23 2 30 33 24 27 25 31 29 29 3 26 31 22 23 27 24 17 26 NARREND -{Keyboard Configuration and Size Narrative} a.Create the ANOVA table. b.Is there sufficient evidence at the 5% significance level to infer that factors A and B interact?

NARRBEGIN: MigraineTreatments Migraine Treatments The following data were generated from a 2 * 2 factorial experiment with 3 replicates, where factor A levels represent two different injection procedures of an anesthetic to the occipital nerve (located in the back of the neck), and factor B levels represent two different drugs, which physicians recommend to increase the effectiveness of the injections. Three migraine patients were randomly selected for each combination of injection and drug.
