Please upload your completed work sheet on Quercus (Module 2, Practice 3)

{218,207,211,209,214,228,217,208,202,209, 201,200,203,214,205,205,213, 212,216,208}

2. Discus one way to that outlier could affect your ANOVA output (hint: how does it affect SS between, SS within, and F ratio).

3. Natalia investigated whether a drug could improve quality of sleep inpatients with sleep apnea. The drug’s aim was to reduce   interruptions to breathing while    sleeping. Researchers recruited 21 sleep apnea patients. Patients received either the drug, no drug, or a placebo. The amount of times breathing was interrupted was recorded over an eight- hour  sleep period. Is there evidence the  drug works?  Please  include:  1)  hypothesis,  2) assumptions, 3) SSbetwene, SSwithin, F ratio, and 4) a conclusion.
