1. State the null hypothesis and the alternate hypothesis.
Ho: the three means are equal
Ha: at least one of the means is different than the other two
--------------------------------------
Run an ANOVA program to answer the following questions:

2. What is the decision rule?
If the p-value is less than 5% reject Ho.
------------------------------------------------
3. Compute SST, SSE, and SS total.
4. Complete an ANOVA table.
5. State your decision regarding the null hypothesis.
Since the p-value is 0.0683..., do not reject Ho.
----
6. If H0 is rejected, can we conclude that treatment 2 and treatment 3 differ? Use the 95 percent level of confidence
Ho is not rejected.
