    ill shortly after the picnic. The root cause of the problem is unknown, and there are a lot of variables.

    Discussion: The hypothesis that was tested was pill bugs are use to the cooler temperature of the room and natural soil would travel a greater distance once they were in a hotter environment. The hypothesis is rejected on the basis that the p-value of .760 is greater than .05. Furthermore, figure 3 supports this rejection, since the averages are very close to each other and their error bars completely overlap. This rejection means that once the pill bugs where in the hotter environment there was

    with the statement (75%) with the other 25% disagreeing. An interesting note however that 100% of the non-affiliated college students disagreed with the statement aligning them more with the Republican college students. These results support my hypothesis because the results show there are more Democrats agreeing with the statement to have more gun control because it will cause less violence. Also, the Pearson’s R measurement (+0.312) showed there is a weak positive trend between the two variables

The extent to which this is true has been a central idea to many economists and researchers and they all have evidence which backs

The null hypothesis states "Bio-inequivalence", while the alternative states "Bioequivalence", as formulation (I). H0: bio-inequivalence; Ha: bioequivalence (I) One might argue that the null and alternative hypotheses are incorrectly reversed, since what we generally do is to put statements like "no difference", "no effect", "equivalent", or "equal to 175 lbs" as
