I need help with this question  1. is the factor interaction significant? explain
A researcher wants to see if gender and / or income affects the total amount of help given to a stranger who is sitting on the side of a busy road with a sign asking for help.   The independent variables are gender, income, and the interaction of gender and income.   The dependent variable is total help. He wants to know if one or both factors – or the interaction of the two - affects the total amount of help offered.  Because he is analyzing two independent variables (gender and income), he used a factorial ANOVA.  His results show the main effect of each of the independent variables on the dependent variable (total help) and the interaction effect.  The researcher is using a 95% confidence interval which means that he wants to be at least 95% sure that his independent variables affected total help if he rejects the null hypothesis. Below is the data set followed by the results:
