The article “influence of Age on Masonry Bond Strength and Mortar Microstructure” (H. Sugo, A. Page, and S. Lawrence, Can J Civ Eng, 2007:1433–1442) investigates the effect of age on tensile strength of mortar. Several specimens of various ages were loaded until failure, and the maximum load (in MPa) was recorded for each. The results are presented in the following table.
- a. Construct an ANOVA table. You may give a
range for the P-value. - b. Can you conclude that there are differences among the mean maximum loads?

Lactation promotes a temporary loss of bone mass to provide adequate amounts of calcium for milk production. The paper “Bone Mass Is Recovered from Lactation to Postweaning in Adolescent Mothers with Low Calcium Intakes” (Amer. J. of Clinical Nutr., 2004: 1322–1326) gave the following data on total body bone mineral content (TBBMC) (g) for a sample both during lactation (L) and in the postweaning period (P). SubjectL 1928 2549 2825 1924 1628 2175 2114 2621 1843 2541P 2126 2885 2895 1942 1750 2184 2164 2626 2006 2627
Does the data suggest that true average total body bone mineral content during postweaning exceeds that during lactation by more than 25 g? State and test the appropriate hypotheses using a significance level of .05.
The article “Structural Performance of Rounded Dovetail Connections Under Different Loading Conditions” (T. Tannert, H. Prion, and F. Lam, Can J Civ Eng, 2007:1600–1605) describes a study of the deformation properties of dovetail joints. In one experiment, 10 rounded dovetail connections and 10 double rounded dovetail connections were loaded until failure. The rounded connections had an average load at failure of 8.27 kN with a standard deviation of 0.62 kN. The double-rounded connections had an average load at failure of 6.11 kN with a standard deviation of 1.31 kN. Can you conclude that the mean load at failure is greater for rounded connections than for double-rounded connections?
The article “Improved Bioequivalence Assessment of Topical Dermatological Drug Products Using Dermatopharmacokinetics” (B. N’Dri-Stempfer, W. Navidi, et al., Pharmaceutical Research, 2009:316–328) describes a study in which a new type of ointment was applied to forearms of volunteers to study the rates of absorption into the skin. Eight locations on the forearm were designated for ointment application. The new ointment was applied to four locations, and a control was applied to the other four. How many different choices were there for the four locations to apply the new ointment?
