question 82

True/False

TABLE 15-3
A chemist employed by a pharmaceutical firm has developed a muscle relaxant. She took a sample of 14 people suffering from extreme muscle constriction. She gave each a vial containing a dose (X) of the drug and recorded the time to relief (Y) measured in seconds for each. She fit a "centered" curvilinear model to this data. The results obtained by Microsoft Excel follow, where the dose (X) given has been "centered."

-Referring to Table 15-3, suppose the chemist decides to use a t test to determine if there is a significant difference between a linear model and a curvilinear model that includes a linear term. If she used a level of significance of 0.01, she would decide that the linear model is sufficient.
