For the question below, state what your null and alternative hypotheses are and select the appropriate test. Assess assumptions and do whatever needs to be done depending on your results (ie, doing a transformation of data or selecting a non-parametric if data violate assumptions). If you decide to run a Kruskal-Wallis test, you can assume the data satisfy those assumptions. Recall that it is generally considered ok to violate one assumption, especially if sample size is not too small. Perform the test and report the p value with the biological interpretation of your data. Finally, make a plot of the data that DOES NOT have a title, but does have proper x and y axis labels (can do it in excel or SPSS).

You find 24 people diagnosed with depression. You randomly assign them to three groups: control, 20 minutes per day of jogging, 60 minutes per day jogging. After a pre-determined time period, you ask them to rank their depression level from 1 to 10, with 1 being very depressed and 10 being not depressed. You collect the following data:

Using Arduino:
Emulate dots and dashes telegraph transmission using a button and two LEDs. For instance, if a button is held longer than 500ms, then the red LED will turn on to represent a dash "-". and a short press will turn on the green LED to represent a dot ".". The problem can be approached as a state machine where the states could include "wait_on_press", "delay_500ms", and "read_btn_val".

Note: You need to show your work. If you choose to use Excel for your calculations, be sure to upload your well-documented Excel and to make note in this file how you arrived at your answers. If you choose to do the work by hand, Microsoft Word has an equation editor. Go to “Insert” and “Equation” on newer versions of Word. On older versions, go to “Insert” and “Object” and “Microsoft Equation.”
Chapter 9 Reflection:
Annual expenditures for prescription drugs was $838 per person in the Northeast of the country. A sample of 60 individuals in the Midwest showed a per person annual expenditure for prescription drugs of $745. Suppose the population standard deviation is $300. Follow the steps below to develop a hypothesis test to determine whether the sample data support the conclusion that the population annual expenditure for prescription drugs per person is lower in the Midwest than in the Northeast.
