How do you prove that a there is statistically significant difference.
If the error bars do not line up then the graph has statistically significant data.
what are error bars
a line that represents the variation or spread relative to corresponding point
what axises do independent and dependent variables go on
independent = x axis
dependent = y axis
what is a control group
standards to which comparisons are made.
what makes a good control group
when only 1 variable changes during every experiment.
If two error bars are overlapping next to each other then you can interpret that
The data is not significant enough to make any good claims.
If one error bar goes from 60-80 while another goes from 20-40 then you can interpret that
The data has a statistically significant difference.
