Textbook Question
Chapter 10.1, Problem 3E
The lumen output was determined for each of I = 3 different brands of lightbulbs having the same wattage, with J = 8 bulbs of each brand tested. The sums of squares were computed as SSE = 4773.3 and SSTr = 591.2. State the hypotheses of interest (including word definitions of parameters), and use the F test of ANOVA (α = .05) to decide whether there are any differences in true average lumen outputs among the three brands for this type of bulb by obtaining as much information as possible about the P-value.

A researcher estimates that the average height of the buildings of 30 or more stories in a large city is at most 700 feet. A random sample of 10 buildings is selected, and the heights in feet are shown. At α = 0.025, is there enough evidence to reject the claim? 485 511 841 725 615 520 535 635 616 582 What is the critical value of the t?
The average number of pounds of sliced ham ordered per customer at the deli where Dennis used to work was 1.4, but at his new job, the average of the 32 people who have ordered ham so far is 1.5 pounds, with a standard deviation of 0.3 pounds.
a) Write the null and alternative hypotheses to test if the average amount of ham bought is higher at the new store.
