The test shows that the conductivity of a cell submerged in a solution can be altered with changes in temperature as the independent variable. However‚ the test shows that we accept the null hypothesis for weight change because weight is not impacted by temperature

are able to utilize this type of testing to estimate the likelihood that the results and data about infomercial products observed occurred by chance.
