NARRBEGIN: TV News Viewing Habits TV News Viewing Habits A statistician employed by a television rating service wanted to determine if there were differences in television viewing habits among three different cities in New York. She took a random sample of five adults in each of the cities and asked each to report the number of hours spent watching television in the previous week. The results are shown below. (Assume normal distributions with equal variances.)

NARRBEGIN: Arthritis Pain Formulas Arthritis Pain Formulas A pharmaceutical manufacturer has been researching new medications formulas to provide quicker relief of arthritis pain. Their laboratories have produced three different medications and they want to determine if the different medications produce different responses. Fifteen people who complained of arthritis pains were recruited for an experiment; five were randomly assigned to each medication. Each person was asked to take the medicine and report the length of time until some relief was felt (minutes). The results are shown below. (Assume normal distributions with equal variances.)
