In order to compare two scales, 30 objects are weighed on both scales. Each object would then have two weight values (one from scale 1 and one from scale 2). Based on the nature of the differences in the two weight measurements for the 30 objects, the two scales may be compared. Do these samples represent dependent or independent samples? A. dependent samples. B. independent samples.

Answer:

These two samples are independent samples.

Explanation:

Each object would then have two weight values (one from scale 1 and one from scale 2). Based on the nature of the differences in the two weight measurements for the 30 objects, the two scales may be compared.

These two samples are independent samples.

Though the objects are same but the scales are different.
