There are five basic assumptions that must be fulfilled in order to perform a one-way ANOVA test. What are they?
Write a fourth assumption.
A grassroots group opposed to a proposed increase in the gas tax claimed that the increase would hurt working-class people the most, since they commute the farthest to work. Suppose that the group randomly surveyed individuals and asked them their daily one-way commuting mileage. The results are as follows.
| working-class | professional (middle incomes) | professional (wealthy) |
17.8 | ||
| 19.5 | 15.4 | 15.4 |
51.2 | 13.9 | 9.3 |
Determine whether or not the variance in mileage driven is statistically the same among the working class and professional (middle income) groups. Use a 5% significance level.

What is the Sum of Squares Error?
Eliminate one magazine type that you now feel has a mean length different from the others. Redo the hypothesis test, testing that the remaining three means are statistically the same. Use a new solution sheet. Based on this test, are the mean lengths for the remaining three magazines statistically the same?


The data shown is the recorded body temperatures of subjects as estimated from available histograms. Traditionally we are taught that the normal human body temperature is F. This is not quite correct for everyone. Are the mean temperatures among the four groups different? Calculate confidence intervals for the mean body temperature in each group and comment about the confidence intervals.
