The article cited in Exercise 19 provides measures of electrical conductivity (in uS/cm). The results are presented in the following table. Sample Size 49 Location Mean SD Upstream 463 208 Midstream 363 98 31 Downstream 647 878 30 Can a one-way analysis of variance be used to determine whether conductivity varies with location? Or is one of the necessary assumptions violated? Explain.

Step 1
The table provides the means, standard deviations and sample sizes for electrical conductivity measurements.
Assumptions for One-Way ANOVA:
- The treatment that taken from a population must be normal.
- All the treatment population must have same variance, which is denoted as σ2.
Here, it is given that the conductivity varies with location.
