Question

A veterinary company wants to compare the reaction time for four drugs (A-D). Each drug is
given to five cattle of same age, class and breed (subjects) and reaction time (assume time is
not normally distributed) is measured. Test the null hypothesis that reaction times for the four
drugs are the same.
Subject
Cattle
DRUG
A B C D
1 5.13 5.10 5.00 4.90
2 4.99 4.85 5.05 5.10
3 4.40 4.56 4.78 4.55
4 4.12 5.23 5.10 4.89
5 5.50 5.13 5.34 5.86

Features Features Normal distribution is characterized by two parameters, mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ). When graphed, the mean represents the center of the bell curve and the graph is perfectly symmetric about the center. The mean, median, and mode are all equal for a normal distribution. The standard deviation measures the data's spread from the center. The higher the standard deviation, the more the data is spread out and the flatter the bell curve looks. Variance is another commonly used measure of the spread of the distribution and is equal to the square of the standard deviation.
