Explanation / Answer

19:

F test shows the p-value is greater than 0.05 so we can assume that variances are equal.

So t-test (equal variances) will be used.

The statistical statement is

t(10)= -6.012, p < 0.002

20)

Since p-value is very so we can conclude that difference is statisticallly signficant.

21)

Yes

22)

On the basis of sampel evidence we can cocnlude that drinking caffeine had an effect on anxiety.
