III. Solve the following problem. 4 points each.

1. A researcher team wants to determine whether the effect of a treatment on the

heart rate of a patient differs between age groups. They samples five for each
age group and measure their heart rate. The following are the results. Determine
whether there is a significant difference between age group at 0.05 siginificance
level.

2. A nurse researcher wanted to know if the heart rate and blood pressure are
correlated among patients undergoing renal dialysis. A random sample of 10
patients was done and measured both variables. Test the hypothesis at 0.05
significance level.
3. An experimental diet was followed by a random sample of 6 people. The
cholesterol level for each was measured before and after the diet as follows.

Before: 174 160` 151 121 275 118

After: 196 212 254 207 221 223
