Answer :
The solutions are,
(a) 1.1825
(b) 0.0985
(c) Reject the null hypothesis since the test's p-value (0.001) is less than 0.05. One might draw the conclusion that there is evidence of a difference in the mean ratios for the 4 neighborhoods based on the sample data.
Given data,
A realtor wants to compare the mean sales-to-appraisal ratios of residential properties sold in four neighborhoods (A, B, C, and D). Four properties are randomly selected from each neighborhood ;
(a) The within-group sum of squares for this analysis will be
4.3644 - 3.1819 = 1.1825
Hence, within the group sum of squares for this analysis is 1.1825.
(b) There are four groups so df for within groups is 12 so the within-group mean squares for this analysis will be,
[tex]\frac{1.1825}{12}=0.0985[/tex]
(c) Since the p-value of the test (0.001) is less than 0.05, reject the null hypothesis. That is based on sample evidence one can conclude that there is evidence of a difference in the mean ratios for the 4 neighborhoods.
