2. Researchers in a veterinary school wanted to compare the effects of three different diets for
dogs. Measures of enzyme activity were obtained for each dog in the study before and after
being fed a specific diet for three weeks. The response variable was the difference between
before and after enzyme activities. Available for the study were three standard poodles,
three dachshunds and three golden retrievers.
1. (15) The inte r ac tion of two factors in a multifactor experiment is a very important concept
in analysis of variance. Explain in plain language what an interaction is.

Make sure your examhas 3 different pages.
You have one hour to complete the exam.
You may use one formula sheet, a calculator and the statistical tables I posted at the
website. (I f a required degrees of freedom is not in the table, use the next smaller
degrees of freedomthat is in the table.)
To get full credit show as much of your work as possible.
Good Luck!

3. An experiment was conducted to study the performance of three different detergents (A,
B and C) at two different water temperatures (warmand cold). Twenty-four loads of clothes
were washed with 4 loads randomly assigned to each combination of detergent and water
temperature. The response variable is a "whiteness" reading ascribed to each load of clothes
(the higher the reading the whiter the clothes). The data are given below, and a plot of the
treatment means and J MP output are on the accompanying handout.
( c) ( 30) Carry . out all statistical tests that are appr opr iate . This includes doing multi- .
ple comparisons of means when appropriate. Use a = 0.05 for all tests. State your
