Question: Researchers want to compare the math performance of sixth-grade students in three different school board districts (referred to here as A, B and C). Simple random samples of 8 students are selected from each of the three districts (so 24 subjects in total), and their scores on a standard math achievement test are observed. The summary statistics for the test scores are as follows:
- (1 point) Mark the sample means on the plot.
-
(2 points) Based on the data & the plot, does the equal variance condition hold? Explain.
We will use one-way ANOVA to look for evidence that there are differences among the mean test scores for the three districts, using a 5% level of significance. -
(4 points) Complete the following ANOVA table. Show your calculations.
- (3 points) State the null and alternative hypotheses, defining any parameters used in the context of the problem.
- (2 points) Report the p-value & assess the strength of the evidence
- (3 points) Give a full conclusion in context.
- (3 points) Find a 95% confidence interval for the difference in the mean exam score between districts B and C (you do NOT need to interpret it)
- (2 points) Based on the interval in part (e), is there evidence that the mean scores for districts B and C differ? Yes or No
