In every experiment there is experimental error. Which of the following statements is true? Answer • Question 2 4 out of 4 points This technique is used to eliminate the effects of nuisance factors (e.g., machines, day of week, and season of year) from an experiment. Answer • Question 3 4 out of 4 points An aspect of good experimental strategy is to study the effects of the variables (Xs) over a wide range.
