main difference between ANCOVA and ANOVA is the later used to test the difference of the mean of
three or more groups whereas ANCOVA is a mixture of Analysis of variance and regression
(b)
(i) False. For each level of the independent variable, there is a linear relationship between the
dependent variable and the covariate
(ii) True
(c) The exam scores (y) against current grade of a student (x) using different plotting symbols for the
studying technique can be produced using the R code:
set.seed(10)
> data <- data.frame(technique = rep(c("A", "B", "C"), each = 30), current_grade =
runif(90, 65, 95), exam = c(runif(30, 80, 95), runif(30, 70, 95), runif(30, 70, 90)))
> data$technique <- as.factor(data$technique)
> plot(exam ~ current_grade, pch = as.character(technique), main = "current_grade vs
exam", data)
> library(ggplot2)
> ggplot(data, aes(x=current_grade, y=exam, shape=technique))+geom_point()
> library(lattice)
> print(xyplot(exam ~ current_grade | technique, data = data, type = c("r", "p")))
