For this project, we'll perform a one-way ANOVA test on a dataset. Scenario: A researcher wants to test the effectiveness of daily doses of zinc (Zn) on patients with seasonal pollen allergies. She also wants to check to see if the dosing level has an effect. 90 volunteer patients with seasonal pollen allergies are divided into three groups (recorded as the Group variable). We will assume these groups are independent. Group 1 (30 patients) are given a high daily dose of zinc (High Dose) Group 2 (30 patients) are given a low daily dose of zinc (Low Dose) Group 3 (30 patients) are given a daily placebo (Control) All groups are given their regimen for 45 days during the season of their pollen allergies and asked to record the number of days that they are allergy free (recorded as the Days variable). Therefore, higher scores on the Days variable indicate a more effective regimen. We will assume the Days variable is approximately normally distributed. Perform a one-way ANOVA test on this data to determine if there are any differences between groups in the mean number of days that the patients were allergy free. Make sure to include the following: Null
