A study was conducted to determine whether magnets were effective in treating pain. The values represent measurements of pain using the visual analog scale. Assume that both samples are independent simple random samples from populations having normal distributions. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that those given a sham treatment have pain reductions that vary more than the pain reductions for those treated with magnets. Sham n= 20 x=0.41 s=1.37
Magnet n= 20 x =0.46 s= 0.94
Identify the test statistic. F=
Identify P-Value=
What is the conclution for the hypothesis test?
A. Fail to reject the null hypothesis. 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
B. Reject the null hypothesis. 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
C. Fail to reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence to to support the claim that those given a sham treatment have reductions that vary more than those treated with magnets
D. Reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence to to support the claim that those given a sham treatment have reductions that vary more than those treated with magnets

F statistic = 2.124

Pvalue = 0.0546

A. Fail to reject the null hypothesis. 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

Step-by-step explanation:

H0 : pain reduction is the same

H1 : pain reduction is varies more with sham.

Sham n= 20 x=0.41 s=1.37

Magnet n= 20 x =0.46 s= 0.94

α - level = 0.05

Using the Ftest statistic

Ftest = larger sample variance / smaller sample variance

Ftest = s1² / s2² = 1.37² / 0.94² = 1.8769 / 0.8836 = 2.124

The degree of freedom :

Numerator = n - 1 = 20 - 1 = 19

Denominator = n - 1 = 20 - 1 = 19

Pvalue(2.124, 19, 19) = 0.0546

Since ;

Pvalue > α ; WE fail to reject the Null ; Result is not significant

c. 27 units.

step-by-step explanation:

we are told that in circle a, ∠bae ≅ ∠dae.

we can see from our given diagram that in and ;

, as these are radii of our given circle.

therefore, by sas congruence postulate.

hence, side be will be equal to side de as corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent. so we can set an equation to find the value of x as:

now let us substitute x=17 in the expression for the length of be.

therefore, length of be will be 27 units and option c is the correct choice.
