Question 4 [7 marks]
A study to determine haemoglobin due to the strength of medication categorised into 5 groups were conducted on 27 women aged 18-40 years. The table below displays the data and the relevant descriptive quantities.
Medication strength
A B C D E
0.8 0.7 1.2 1.0 0.6
0.6 0.8 1.0 0.9 0.4
0.6 0.5 0.9 0.9 0.4
0.5 0.5 1.2 1.1 0.7
0.6 1.3 0.7 0.3
0.9 0.8
0.7
a) Normality assumption was checked, and it was not normally distributed. Hence, determine if the five groups of medication strength have the same median haemoglobin level? [5 marks]
b) Write a brief summary of what the result show. [2 marks]
