Is there evidence to suggest a difference in the mean waiting times at the four body shops?
Use the .05 significance level.
----------------
Ho: The mean waiting times are all equal
Ha: At least one of the mean waiting times is not equal
ANOVA software was run on the data.
The p-value is 0.001632 which is less than 5%
---------
Conclusion: Reject Ho
Not all the waiting times are equal
