Three types of ads (big headlines, straightforward, and bold print) were randomly alternated over a period of weeks, and the number of people responding to the ads was noted each week.

	Type of Advertisement
	Big Headline	Straightforward	Bold Print
Number of responses (replicates)	48	20	34
	36	28	39
	24	18	44
	45	24	40
	27	19	41
	45		32

Do these data support the null hypothesis that there is no difference in the effectiveness of the ads, as measured by the mean number responding, at the .01 level of significance?
