A salesman boasts to a farmer that his new fertilizer will increase the yield of the farmer's crops by 15%.  The farmer wishes to test the effects of the new fertilizer on her corn yield.  She has four equal sized plots of land—one with sandy soil, one with rocky soil, one with clay-rich soil, and one with average soil.  She divides each of the four plots into three equal sized portions and randomly labels them A, B and C.  The four A portions are treated with her old fertilizer.  The four B portions are treated with the new fertilizer. The four C portions receive no fertilizer.  At harvest time, the corn yield is recorded for each section of land.  What is the claim she is testing?
◦ The average soil field had at least a 15% increase in yield.
◦ The A sections had at least a 15% increase in yield.
◦ The new fertilizer yielded at least a 15% improvement.
◦ The total yield increased at least 15%.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
