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.

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.)
