In a line graph showing the results from a two-factor experiment,the levels of factor B are presented on the X-axis and separate lines are used to display the means for A1 and A2.If the points on the line for A1 are consistently five points higher than the corresponding point on the line for A2,what pattern of results is indicated?
A)no indication of an interaction
B)an indication of an A-effect
C)an indication of an A-effect but no indication of an interaction
D)an indication of an interaction but no indication of an A-effect

In a line graph showing the results from a two-factor experiment,the levels of factor B are presented on the X-axis and separate lines are used to display the means for A1 and A2.If the points on the line for A1 are consistently five points higher than the corresponding point on the line for A2,what pattern of results is indicated?​
A)​no indication of an interaction
B)​an indication of an A-effect
C)​an indication of an A-effect but no indication of an interaction
D)​an indication of an interaction but no indication of an A-effect

The consistent difference of five points between the lines for A1 and A2 indicates an A-effect, meaning that factor A has a significant effect on the outcome. However, there is no indication of an interaction because the difference between the lines does not vary depending on the level of factor B. Therefore, the correct choice is C, which indicates an A-effect but no interaction.
