1) Use the appropriate descriptive statistics to summarize thedata. Provide your preliminary observations.

2) Develop a 95% confidence interval for the average depressionscore among healthy people and the chronically ill. Discuss yourfindings.

3) Perform an analysis of variance to test for any significantdifferences due to location for healthy people. Use a 0.05 level ofsignificance. Comment on your fmdings.

4) Perform an analysis of variance to test for any significantdifferences due to location for chronically ill. Use a 0.05 levelof significance. Comment on your findings.

Please provide statistics of patients regardless of their healthand null and alternative hypothesis for each test.
