*A researcher would like to find out whether a particular diet affects a person’s cholesterol reading. She records the cholesterol readings of 23 men who ate cow meat for dinner every night, 24 men who ate chicken and 19 men who ate pig; her data appears in the table to the right. She wants to know whether the differences in the average readings are significant; i.e., whether the average reading of all men who eat cow is different from the average reading of those who eat chicken or whether these averages differ from the average reading of those who ate pig.
